Goodbye and Good Riddance 2011: Maybe the even years are better  

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. 2011? Room for improvement. Srsly.

I've got most of the stuff bought to make my giftee's package, I'm just slacking on the making part of it.

I received the most wonderful TJ's package from dcp. I am hording it like crazy. The kids know I have goodies and keep asking me what I'm going to share next. Bah, humbug. They can get their own TJ connection. Today I sent out my part of the TJ's exchange with non-TJ's goodies.

I suggested the name based on a conversation in which I got confused and couldn't remember which were the better Star Trek movies.

Hello new thread. I woke up when ND came to bed at 3am and now can't fall back asleep. Argh. Alarm goes off in two hours. Also, still relying on phone since Internet and cable have still not yet been restored. It's getting old.

Just like this year! Look, I'm on topic.

Hi, new thread!

This... was actually a pretty great year, now I look back over it. It kind of feels like my first year of being something like a grown-up. I had my anxiety under control, I got stuff published, I got my flea market business set up and made real steps towards opening a vintage store. And, to top it all off, I met a boy. So thanks, 2011. You were one of the good ones.
