Happy 2010 everyone!
Thanks primarily to Wil Wheaton's epic posts concerning the Year in Review, here is mine. WHHHEEAAAATTTOOONNN!!
In the Chinese way of thinking, this has been the Year of the Ox, a year to say, "I Persevere." The past year has certainly offered us chances to persevere… and to come out victorious.
Some things haven't changed much.
The house is being remodeled. Still. There is hope. The new tub (with "swirling bubbles") is in and now the floor needs to be done and the trim. . . There is hope, if I persevere. :)
Beyond-Earth hasn't progressed very much this year. We did find a new CAD artist to fix one of our broken images. Other things are in the works and we'll see how they work out. Sam and I are looking at some energy-related projects to bring us in some money. Then we can fly again!
The house in Roswell still hasn't been repaired so we can sell it but steady progress is being made. And I feel like we're getting somewhere for a change. It's painful talking to the insurance people but I wonder if they do it on purpose so people we settle for whatever they offer. I have time. 'In for a penny, in for a pound' after all. Maybe I should cut my losses but we'll see--I'm making progress. I will be victorious :)
Speaking of that, my Messages From the Gods album (MFG, to the right) has grown dramatically. The most recent song from Muse is the theme for the re-imaging of "V". Uprising
And speaking of "victorious," my quest for a boy friend continues. I have an interesting prospect at the moment (but I don't want to jinx it by mentioning more details yet) and I finally did something this year I've always wanted to do. I slept with someone on my birthday.
Sadly, RJ and I only slept together since his appendix had burst and we spent the night together in the hospital. It was really nice and relaxing and fairly romantic until the nurse came in and asked if I was RJ's Dad! Ack! He's not that young! :)
RJ went off to prison after that night for busting his parole by failing a drug test (sigh) and that was not the nay prison story for me this year. Mike (my stalker from back in the day) called one day just to say "Hi" and that he was thinking about me. Eyes widening, I asked where he was and found out he was still in the prison out east somewhere. And finally found out that he was there because he "accidentally" killed someone.
At Samhain, I got a reading asking about what to do with these people from my past showing up again. The reading was interesting, the cards alternated between male and female and every card had something to do with fertility -- and every one of them was in opposition. No pressure or anything.
But perhaps it was a sign to spend more time on creative endeavors. I've started working on my book again. And the website that will support it. The site isn't published yet though there is a lot of work completed on it and on the Stone Reaches site. And Ashok and I have started developing an iPhone app which we're hoping to release soon.
I have lots of projects going :) Some of them should become "profitable" in the near future--stay tuned…
