Test

yay, part 2

Hmm... Something interesting just happened. Depending on how you see things, I guess. Or maybe I'm just lucky sometimes.

The vending machine gave me two bags of peanut m&m's for the price of one.

Sound familiar? I couldn't help but think of a similar occurrence from about a year and a half ago. I went back and read this -- and the wonderful ensuing comments -- and smiled.

the highlight of my day:

the worst part of my day:
my boss wants to promote me

I cannot express the insanity of that moment any more clearly than that. Period. I wanted to, but it's like my mind will not allow it. Even still, it remains a difficult subject. I know this because I had wanted to mention it in a year-in-review update, which never happened.

Rather than try to express the insanity of it all... I'd rather express my gratitude, for things have changed! The most significant singular event of last year was getting a new job. There, I finally mentioned it. I got a new job! And what have I gained? Probably most of all, perspective. And it has made... all the difference.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence...


Or maybe I'm just lucky sometimes.

Sigh.

A grand farewell to 2008. So much has happened, lots of really great moments; I do wish I had captured more of it on the blog. I always figured I'd write another big year-end review like I did last year. I even kept notes. But to be honest, I don't much feel like it now. With the holidays behind me, I'm ready to move forward.

Welcome to 2009!
