Final Post of 2004
Well, this is it folks. The last day of 2004. This year was a total blur, and I can't believe it's over already. Still, my life has changed so much over the last 365 days (including the extra day for leap year but not including today). Shit, now that I think about it, a lot of stuff happened this year.A year ago I was in a relationship which was the best thing to happen in my life for a long time. I spent the first part of the year moving 150 miles from home to be close to her. I found a shitty apartment, then a job, then a better apartment, then a slightly better job. At right about the midpoint of the year, the relationship ended (much to my dismay), and I sort of went into a downward spiral for a while.
I was utterly destroyed, and I haven't fully recovered to this day. Things gradually get easier, but it still hurts sometimes. She and I have managed to remain good friends, and as time has passed since the relationship ended, we have come to know one another on a much deeper level than when we were together. A good friendship is a wonderful thing (and extremely rare in my life of late). Of course I've made no secret of my persisting desire for it to be something more, but oh well.
I haven't the slightest idea of what this next year will bring, but I have high hopes. Some resolutions:
1. Start working out again and get back into shape.
2. Find a better job, doing what I enjoy, making more money.
3. Pay down some of my ridiculous credit card debt.
4. Have a lot of sex.
5. Fall in love again.
6. Get a better place to live where I can have a cat and no roommate who's allergic.
7. Attain inner peace.
8. Attain world peace.
Okay, methinks that is enough resolutions for one year. Tomorrow I am off to New York City to celebrate New Year's Eve with some of my old friends from college. I'll have my new digital camera with me, so when I return I will have some great pics to share.
Happy New Year to everyone!
