There were ups. There were downs. The high points were very high though. For me, 2009 was a significant year of change.
Like any year, there were low points, but I choose not to dwell on them tonight. Instead, I’ll think about the high points.
My birthday present to myself was spending my first night in my new apartment. Had two housewarming parties. Met new people. Got caught in the rain repeatedly, and had no objections.
Learned that everything in life is only for now. Good or bad.
Much of the year is a blur of good food, good friends, frills, rain, and a general bemused haze of giddiness.
I leave you with a wish I made this morning on Facebook.. A Happy New Year to you all. Look not to the year that has past but to the year that is to come, and all the opportunities it brings with it!
We’re past the hump, and the days will only start to grow longer now.
I’m doing ok! How are you? “For now we’re healthy, for now we’re employed, for now we’re happy, if not overjoyed, and we’ll accept the things we cannot avoid… for now…”
Anyway, 1/2/2010 – Saturday after New Years Day, the Day After… Potluck lunch and dinner hangout day at my place in Harlem! Videos, games, food, but most importantly, good company. Daytime party, so folks have the option of going out on the town in the evening.
Ping me here if you want to know the details. Space is limited! XD
So I woke up at 7am today, no alarm or anything, just randomly woke up. I staggered out of bed, took a look outside, and decided that I couldn’t leave it alone, it absolutely required a walk outside with the cameras to play.
