the year of 30
i keep forgetting what year it is.
pre-adulthood is all about looking ahead: to the next big trip, the next graduation, to when life officially begins. now here i am, smack dab in the middle of my official real life and there's no longer a set schedule to remind me that days are passing. it's a bit like living in a casino...especially in california where even the seasons don't change much.
that said, 2009 was a nice year, even if it was far less action-packed than 2008 and despite the fact that we spent most of it house-hunting, which in the bay area is always a completely demoralizing experience. we took a lovely trip back to the east coast, saw many good friends and adorable children, and also enjoyed celebrating the weddings of many of our closest friends and family.
Memorable consumption
- favorite books of 2009: the hunger games & catching fire, by suzanne collins; the help, by kathryn stockett; power of one, by bryce courtenay
- fave sytycd routine: mollee & jakob do the viennese waltz
- stuff i did with @wingerz: played through the new super mario bros (the irony: although wing is a much better player, he accidentally jumped into a pit right before we finally defeated bowser, so the entire end credits rolled with just me ;))
wow, i must really be getting old (or boring) because nothing else is coming to mind.
