A year in which women like Erin and Vortex got no action is a year that should hang its head in shame.
This. And in general, I'm so sorry that so many people had such a shit year.
2007 was a pretty good year for me. The year had its downs (losing the Miracleborns to geography being one of the big ones), but it served me pretty well overall. First year that I neither moved nor changed jobs in several years past, so that made it pretty awesome all by itself. Living with ND has been wonderful (a year and a half already!), and my job--despite ups and downs--has been really good. I am deeply grateful for my beloved family and friends and feel lucky every day to have had the rare opportunity to
control-alt-delete
my life a few years back and have come out on the other side a happier person. Life with ND just keeps getting better, so I have high hopes for 2008.
Cheers, loves! Here's to a wonderful new year!
My bob is pretty cute.

We're heading over to megan's house right now! For dessert...all the xmas treats lying around the house including the candy apple that's bigger than Vortex's breast.
Matilda is in her monkey jammies. I'll ferry Lee over first, then come back and collect JZ, baby and Scola.
Another year of "Well, I'm not dead yet." Certainly 2007 was better than 2006 for me, so that's a good thing. Moved to a new (bigger) city, found a job pretty quickly, but put on 30 pounds because said job is both stressful and sedentary. Stayed employed the whole year, yay! Still fighting depression on and off, but stayed busy enough that insomnia hasn't been a problem. Paid off some loans and had enough money left over to buy myself a new computer (the first in seven years) this Christmas. May 2008 continue the trend towards improvement!
My thanks to all you Buffistas, for keeping me interested and entertained when little else could.
well, 2008 is starting as 2007, nookie less. I tried! I hung with the gay boys (including the bisexual marine who I was flirting with shamelessly, but he had a boy for the moment), and left them to find straight boys, but was
thwarted
because the straight bars closed early (as in the regular time on a weekday). AND I tried to get on the train at 2:15, to save a few bucks, and it was closed too. THWARTED AND DENIED.
I kissed a girl, but she ran out on me. She gave me a friend's business card. hmm.

See, starting the evening out this way was clearly where your plan for nookie went wrong. I opted not to hang out with the gay boys last night, and consequently ended up nookie-less as well. We should have traded plans.
It's all right, Vortex. I didn't even get a friendly grope. There was NO ONE at the party except married friends. But I still had a lot of fun.
I need to get out more this year.
and elizabethchloe, hi! My accent changes according to mood. You're lucky you can't HEAR them. They're awful.
That's a shame Erin. Kristin and I would have given you a right neighborly grope.
Oh, and I'd like a Romance. Or at least some action.
I'd like to join in on this resolution.

This. Vortex and Matt are both extremely worthy of groping and nookie, but obviously hanging out with each other's target crowds.

I got a friendly grope from a gay man. Does that count? My hostess was v. kind and sat me next to the 2 single, straight men at the party and I did get hugs from them.
2007 has been a year of transition for me and while it's been good on the whole, it has been a lot of change and I'm still getting used to it.
I quit my job of 11 years in January to start student teaching. For the first half of the year, I student taught and job hunted and worried about not finding a job after spending 5 years going to school trying to change my career.
In June, I got 4 job offers within 3 days. My head was spinning, but I think I made the right choice and started my new job as a drama teacher at a middle school. Drama teacher is exactly what I wanted. Middle school? Not so much. I am enjoying it a lot more than I thought I would, but I still think I'd rather teacher high school. This is a great school and I love my coworkers, so I plan on staying at my current school through next year. But next spring, I'll probably try looking for a high school drama job.
In September, I moved 40 miles west of where I had been living. I'm now firmly in the suburbs and not in the city and it's an adjustment. For the most part, I like living out here. It's quiet, traffic is easy, and I have a 5 minute commute. Hooking up with my friends is more difficult, and that's been the biggest adjustment.
Now that I'm working at a school, I'm having to deal with internet filters and b.org is blocked. That makes me cry almost every day. By the time I get home, I rarely get back on my computer so I go days now without logging on here. I used to keep a window open all day and check it all day long. I miss it here so very much.
My life now is v. different from a year ago. On the whole, it was positive and I'm thankful for it. Except for the b.org blockage which sucks hairy donkey balls.
I got a friendly grope from a gay man.
me too. and an offer to lick my nipple.
