Taking Stock

So some maniac is doing Samuel Pepys‘ diary as a blog. If you don’t know who Pepys is, follow the link and check him out. He rocks.

In that vein, I thought I’d do a sort of summing-up of last year.

During 2002 I…

… jobhunted and redid my writing and web design professional pages.

… continued working on The Red Pages and saw The Red Elvises themselves several times. I miss being in LA where I could see them all the time!

… wrote a boatload of film reviews

… continued living with my parents.

… finally decided that I want to write for a living, not do web design (although web design, like teaching, pays the bills).

… posted nearly every day in my blog here. :-D

… did National Novel Writing Month again, and won. Go me.

… met several other bloggers in person (including Antwon, Internet Rock Star and all-round cool guy, and GeekyChick, she of the neat and oft-changing layouts!). Yay for Meetup.com!

… vacationed in England and attended the Discworld Convention.

… had surgery.

… continued being obsessed with The Lord of the Rings, in all its forms (but especially the card game

I think that’s most of the major stuff. Man. My brain is still pulped from the party I went to last night. Heeee. Midori Sours and Romulan Ale are my friends! (For those of you who don’t know how to mix Romulan Ale, it’s easy: Sprite, vodkha, blue curacao, and a few drops of Tabasco for kick. Much fun, if made strongly enough. I once watched Galaxy Quest in Thermian while drinking Romulan Ale…).

Happy new year, everybody! May your resolutions be kept, your hangovers brief, and your friends and family around you.
