I like to write a good annual year in review post. Let’s start with the good:
- Megan and I have a very strong relationship after a year
- New Job has been going good
- Grad School is working out well
- I finally bought a Mac
- Obama won which is cool because it ruins some European’s view of America as this racist spot, when we can elect a minority as President, and you can’t seem to make that happen in your perfect world, plus he’ll do a good job I think.
And the not so good:
- Enormous Losses – a friend died too young, amongst many sacrifices we’ve seen this year
- The economy – it hurts to see people losing their job
- A lay off (or two) – I got laid off in March, while it sucked I was back at work in 3 weeks. I can’t say the same for some peers however
Overall, it feels worse than it looks on paper: the good of Megan doesn’t cancel out the still painful loss of a friend, and the bad economy. The lay off I got over quick because I was at a job quick (I was leaving anyway probably, but other lay offs have caught others, and they are suffering now).
