My 2007(for those of you scoring at home. Even if you're alone.)
-number of times I've made that joke:512.
-Number of times it actually amused somebody:20
Probably the most significant thing I've done this year is get beyond my Luddite tendencies and actually learn to post things in html. It is, perhaps not life-altering, as it gives me another fandom to immerse myself in, but it feels like it's been a really long time since I could track my growth in something, so that was a great feeling. Also, they can count on me now when something happens so I feel like I've developed some proficiency in the intervening ten months. I've written two widely-praised pop culture essays for my friends down at High Hat, and I'm still working hard to find my place in the non-virtual world.
There's group hugging? ::looks hopeful::
<snuggles into group hug>
C'mon in, cuddle up and make yourselves comfortable.
And by comfortable...we mean...
Karl!
Are y'all bogarting the Karl in here? Can I join the corner snug?
I haven't done SS for a couple of years, not even slackery, because of massive fail and self-flaggelating. It's why I don't own a dog. (I let down the people I love--D. Winchester) I don't have a tree up. Yet. But I made a promise last year and I have this week to keep it, so I don't count it as failure quite yet. The outside decorations are up, the mail-away gifts are mailed, even if late.
There probably won't be much of a year-end update from me, since this year has been mostly dormant; hopefully I've had time for recovery and regroup. Maybe I'm ready to re-emerge and re-engage more in 2008.
I have no tree. I have an ornament, though. Does that count for anything?
I have a box that says 'shhhh!' on it! I should to open??
(and another one in a bag that I need to put in the mail two days ago! that says something else on it but has the same general theme... heh.)

Do you have a root?
I have a tree. It's in a box in the attic. I don't know if it's going to make its way downstairs or not.
Next year, I'm going to do it. I need to feel more connected to Christmas and I keep feeling too broke to do it but I really, really should.
