Geez, did EVERYONE hate 2009? I mean, I suppose it wasn't the absolute greatest thing ever, but I enjoyed (well, more than I would enjoy the position I left) my first full year of cataloging work in Technical Services and went to my first Harry Potter convention and managed to put on a LE/SS ship meetup there and organize a 'kin gather and took my husband to PantheaCon for the first time and had my first wedding anniversary and got neat perks from having joined a members' club at the local meadery and, erm, it seems unlike the rest of the nation, got a raise (actually a longevity award for 8 years service)... er. Should I not be mentioning any of this...?
Um... I didn't successfully move out of my parents' house because there's no work for web-programmer-type husband. Is that bad enough to count?
Oh, and my mother got shingles in her eye and for almost a whole year now has had to be taking very expensive medication (as in thousands of dollars per year, a good deal of which rests in the Medicare "donut hole") and put in these weird milky drops like three times a day and some kind of moistening gel (?) and the doctor says basically all they can do is hope to suppress it because if not then it basically means losing that eye and she will likely be dealing with it the rest of her life. There. That sucks, yeah?
