Goodbye and Good Riddance 2015: Goodnight moon  

Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Thanksgivukkahmas, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering.

Go away, 2015.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Accounting! It's what I've been doing for the last few years, but with all my education in the humanities I skipped, you know, math. Business. More math. Excel! I'm doing pre-reqs for about a year, and then the goal would be to transfer to the local uni and either complete a certificate, or more pre-reqs for an MS.

I was worried at the beginning that I was going to be bored, covering stuff I already did. But I never took math in high school or college (apart from one very sad trigonometry class). Turns out, as I discovered nearly two years ago, that I experience a substantial learning disability in math. So I avoided it because I couldn't comprehend it, further provoking the diminished capacity to learn. And it didn't get caught effectively when I was a minor.

Now tho, I have Accommodations. And Services. Let me tell you about how in love with the testing center I am, the testing center with its individual rooms and soundproofing.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

It's good to see your font around here again, SA. I'm glad it's been a good, healing year for you.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That's wonderful to read, SA.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Thanks for sharing some good news, SA. I'm glad things are going so well for you!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

SA! It's good to see you posting, and it is good to hear that things are turning around for you. I'm sorry it took an illness to make that happen.

At this point I don't just hope they find a cure for cancer, I hope the cure involves somehow removing each individual cancer cell and making it die screaming as it withers away over a span of months.

Seconded.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

I'm going on record and saying December does not exist for me, anymore. It is dead, dead, dead. I have lost three wonderful people over the years in this dratted month and I just want to skip right over it, thank you very much. Even Christmas--it's hard to be joyful when my heart hurts this much.
