Year in review, looking to the next...
So, cut because this is mostly for my own amusement, opening of the first entry of each month for the year.
Jan 1st
Happy New Year! The neighbors just put on a fantastic fireworks show, which freaked out Squeaks. She went to go hide under the bed upstairs, her usual refuge during thunderstorms.
Feb 3rd
I meant to post this a few days back, since I dreamed it I think Saturday night? For the record, I haven't watched all that much 30 Rock...
March 2nd
This feels late in the day, but everyone say happy birthday to [Bad username or site: the_wugglyump! @ livejournal.com]
April did not exist! No, that's not an April Fool's joke. I just didn't post for a month...
May 3rd
Wow. So I'm sucking at the updating thing. So much easier to play brainless FaceBook games. The charm of them is wearing thin, but I've also just been busy. And depressed. Sometimes I'm even both at the same time. It is awesome.
June 12th
And more radio silence, I guess. This week has been... well it's felt like a blur of nothing, really. Had a job interview that was kind of hopeful, got a form eml saying I didn't get it after all, and spent a lot of the week through today with stomach problems.
July 21st
Can anyone explain to me why, if an account name is deleted and purged, you have to pay money for a rename token to use it? Maybe I should recheck my dictionary because I thought 'deleted and purged' should mean 'double gone'. I guess two negatives make a positive. Of cash. For LJ.
August 1st
This is a... heads-up? A warning, an apology, a brief little wibble-fest, I'm not sure. Anyway, I may be unreliable on the internets for a little while. My grandmother has had a stroke, possibly a series of strokes, and is in the hospital on a breathing tube.
September 9th
I feel like I was doing better for a while, and then the stuff with my grandmother happened and I slipped back, and now I'm having trouble climbing out of the pit again.
October 14th
After lots of ups and downs, just got the phone call that my grandmother had a severe heart attack.
November 1st
I'm not ready for Halloween to be over yet! If you aren't either, here's an amazing little zombie story written by my friend Mel!
December 23rd
So somehow I got swept away from the world a little before Thanksgiving, and short status updates on FB has been my main mode of communication with the world.
Okay, that and RP. Lots of RP.
Hunh. So, a cycle of mild depression and not posting much on here, more on FB because it's quick and easy and stupid. All that overshadowed in the last part by my grandmother. She's... actually apparently had a good Christmas/holidays, in the sense that she's talking a little more and knows where she is most of the time again. They were also talking about calling in hospice, just before that, so we're kind of thinking this is her last push to have a good holiday... Dunno. The thing about having somebody take such a long slide toward the end is it does weird things to the grieving process.
I'm a little surprised how little art seems to have been posted this year. Must try to fix that. Hello 2011, I'm hoping this is the year I get a damn job again, and... I don't know, really, that looms so big in my mind that I can't wish for much else. Not realistically.
I wish all my friends the best for the new year, though.
