Haha, I didn't even notice it until you pointed it out.
Awesome.
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2010: Don't Let the Door Hit Ya...
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 2010? We have a few words for you.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie
I got Drew in 2010. I had him before, but the ceremony on the Maui beach with us in all our finery and the minister in khakis and sunglasses and the sun settling so beautifully in the background was the perfect setting to become husband and wife. For us, it was perfect.
The couple of months he spent so ill were awful, but he got good care and has come out the other side a healthier, wiser man. As I've said before, I think we've aptly covered the "in sickness" part of the vows. I'm looking forward to a nice long stretch of health. And happiness. Always that too because I was lucky enough to marry my best friend.
I wish everyone a happy, healthy, fun 2011--a year when laughter makes us cry far more often than sorrow; a year when we all feel loved and cherished and know we have family in many forms who have our backs. Peace, joy, and laughter to you all.

2010 has been pretty great, politics and elections not withstanding.
I like my job for the most part and this part of the year has been way more enjoyable than last year's group. Actually, I'm happy to have a job and that many of my friends are employed too.
Having Grace home has been awesome. She's so herself, so full of joy and curiosity and life. We've learned how to care for her and we've learned to expand our expectations for her.
Noah has been a blessing -- talkative, difficult, loving. He's been amazing at adapting to having Grace in our life.
The days are full in our world. We hope for a new year that is full of bravery and fearlessness and good health.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I have to say, 2010 has been pretty great for me, too. Got more settled in Boston, got a great new job (which is about to get even better, I hope), did a ton of dating, spent a lot of time with family. Some things are likely to get worse in 2011, but I am hopeful for another good year.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Lots of good in 2010 for me, especially in the last few months. With the help of my loving Buffistas, and most especially Vortex, I finally washed that KBD right outta my hair. I went to NOLA three times, one of which was the best and longest date I've ever been on, and hope to call The Big Easy my home in 2011. I changed jobs, and the new one is still exhausting but so much closer to what I want to do and I'm much happier. My little sis graduated from college, and I'm hopeful that the new year will see her get a job and out of our parents house for good.
The romance front is still tumultuous, but at least B is not a controlling asshole. He's honest and affectionate, if only in my life sporadically, and we'll just have to see how that evolves.
As always, I am so honored and lucky to call you insanely smart and loving people my friends, and I wish you all a fabulous year to come, full of dreams fulfilled and happiness and family and friends.
