Embellished Truth & Polite Fiction

10 reasons I can’t wait for New Year’s Day..

1. 2008? SUCKED.
2. no, really… it was that bad.
3. so bad? that if I were writing a history book? I’d skip it.
4. if I were writing a memoir? I’d probably spend the most time on that year.. cause, you know, drama makes good reading, right?
5. very few good things came out of 2008
6. so few, in fact, I could probably have used every one of them for my 10 things today
7. it’s been a pattern in my life though.. even years suck, odd years are good
8. I shudder when I think about how bad 2010 might be
9. and so? I am looking forward to 2009 – it’s gonna be GOOD.
10. and to 2008? I say GOOD RIDDANCE.

I don’t know how much I will be posting over the next few months.. January through March are kind of a ‘bad time of year’ for me.. I like to keep things as positive as I can around here, I have other places for ‘airing my laundry’, so to speak. Who knows? perhaps the first few months of 2009 will be SO spectacular, that I will be posting nearly every day! Yeah.. let’s just hope that’s the case. Either way, Happy New Year everyone! Make it a good one. I’ll see you in 2009.
