year in review

I am doing this same meme (questionnaire thingy) that 'Rain did on her blog. Fun stuff. (jessica smirks)

  • What did you do in 2008 that you’d never done before? put our house for sale
  • Did anyone close to you give birth? no
  • Did anyone close to you die? not really (close, not someone close, that is...)
  • What would you like to have in 2009 that you lacked in 2008? sell our house
  • What was your biggest failure of the year? realized too late that some (big and important) things were not as i thought they were
  • Where did most of your money go? house renos
Compared to this time last year:
  • Are you happier or sadder? happier
  • Thinner or fatter? thinner, thanks to manual labor!
  • Richer or poorer? poorer
  • What do you wish you’d done more of? communicating with loved ones
  • What do you wish you’d done less of? stupid assbook, ahem, i mean facebook
  • What was the best book you read? (still in progress) but Dune, by Frank Herbert (its also a movie, maybe i will watch it sometime)
  • What was your favorite film of this year? can honestly say that i wouldn't be able to tell you the name of a new movie from this year
  • What one thing would have made your year immeasurably more satisfying? selling our house and moving
  • Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2008. you can't trust very many people to be true to their word. a phrase like "my word is my bond" is indeed a rarity these days.
