New Decade!
Jan. 2nd, 2010 02:50 pmI try not to be materialistic and money oriented, but I will freely admit that counting an enormous pile of cash that was generated by a project that I directed makes me really pleased. In any case, the New Year's Eve show of Compleat Wks went ridiculously well; the house was packed beyond fire-hazard status, with people sitting on laps and standing in the aisles. The show itself was hilarious and everyone loved it and there was much laughter and silliness and joy and it was such a perfect way to transition to a new year.
After the show & strike, Perez and I briefly stopped by a friend's place and then spent the rest of NYE at Talia's, partying with the elfy friends and watching fireworks from her strategically placed windows and drinking stupidly tasty cocktails (St Germaine + champange + lime = yes please).
And then I slept in, and then had people over to my house last night, for latkes (Philip is the latke king) and snacks and board games, which was actually more like trivia, but still geeky and fabulous. So far 2010 is being really good to me! Only two days, but they're nice relaxing days.
I don't know that I want to do any end-of-year recap things, really; I'm very much excited about starting a new year and moving forward, and while I know that the slate doesn't get wiped clean in anything more than a chronological way, the metaphor is still good to dwell on. In 2009 I did a lot of things, mostly pretty good, some not as good; a lot of things happened to me, some pretty good and some really frustrating. It was a year. It's over. And I'm ready for the next one.
I sort of have resolutions, and some things that I know will happen in any case, so in no particular order:
( my rambling plan for the year )
2010 will be my year of awesome. I am committed to this. I know there's going to be some frustrating things coming up, but overall I am going to make this good. Bring it on, new decade.
Oh, and in 2010 I will also be ready for the zombie apocalypse. You know, just in case.
