Go, you.
I shall, indeed, go. I know not where, though.
Probably just bed.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2004: Well, I Wasn't Expecting That.
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Christmukkah, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Oh, and 2004? Don't think we've forgotten about you.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Huh. If I didn't know better, I would wonder if Gus was blocking me (or ignoring me), since he responded to the five or 6 posts around mine, but nsm mine.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
See?!
Lee, I missed your post because of ... wait. You are just jacking me up, on account of the Kat thing.
Evil Lee. Lee is starting 2005 EVIL, Gawd help us all.

A little, yeah, but also, it was true. Lee "Goodbye and Good Riddance 2004: Well, I Wasn't Expecting That." Dec 31, 2004 8:53:59 pm PST

Hellbound Equal-Opportunity Nookie Hog
2004 was a year where most of my gains were in the mental, emotional and spiritual realms instead of financial. But I at least held my own on that last one.
My DH remains unemployed, but he came so close this past week I have hope he'll be hired by someone sooner than later in 2005. As for me, I have the same job, got a small raise, and have been getting more responsibilities given to me.
I feel a bit saner now than last year, which in a sense is saying something. I've been learning more about what makes me tick and where I need to do some work.
I've been getting real support and reinforcement in my pagan path from expected and unexpected avenues. More than ever, I know I'm where I need to be on that level. It's hard work, but it matters.
Romantically, I remain the resident nookie hog. I still have the DH and two of the three sweeties I had when I posted this time last year. One of the three faded back to friends-only status back in January, but someone else stepped up to take her place with both the DH and myself back in July.
My apartment isn't as stuff-free as it should be, but it has less stuff in it than it did this time last year. There have been too many years I couldn't say that.
My bankruptcy was finalized back in January. Sadly, I didn't list one thing I should have on it, but I'm working on getting that one under control. At least I can afford to do something with it.
And while I don't participate much, I've always been glad you folks are here.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Maybe I take it back.

Thanks for the back-link, I really did miss it, among my other thread posting and natural confusion...
I feel like I was drifting too much, in a lot of different ways, and I guess the closest I am going to come to a resolution this year is to pay more attention and focus more, even on the little stuff.
This is the thing. Bearing down on the present moment. I also wish I was able to do more of it.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
My son got married to a wonderful girl and now lives in a wonderful place.
Yeah, except now he can't get married to ME. Hmph.
Happy New Year, Buffistas! We had a fun little shindig in our apartment--several friends, lots of good food and drinks, and we played board games and watched Saved and looked up at the clock at 12:30 and said, oh, hey, 2005. Now to switch the calendar in the kitchen, and hopefully make a dent in the dishes before I go to bed. Much love to you all!
