Things to come in '09

New Years for me was pretty uneventful. I don't like going out on New Years because of all the drunk drivers and all. Plus, if I go to Des Moines and get drunk with friends, I have 25 miles between me and home. I just stayed here in town and went over to my parent's house. I had a few glasses of Bacardi and a glass of Plum Wine when the ball dropped. I rarely drink, so I was a little tipsy. Mom brought me home because she didn't want me to drive.

I started thinking about 2008, and it made me realize that it was not a great year for me at all. I quit the city ambulance crew in January. I stupidly invited an old Job Corps friend to be my roommate in February and kicked him out two weeks later. I got myself into a lot of debt in the Spring, and I'm just now almost out of debt. I lost one of my best friends, and I had to have hernia surgery in November.

I really hope 2009 turns out to be a lot better than 2008.

Peace!
