2010

'Cause it's gonna be the future soon
And I won't always be this way
When the things that make me weak and strange get engineered away

--Jonathan Coulton, "The Future Soon"

In the scheme of how we actually live our lives, a new year doesn't really mean a whole hell of a lot; it's another trip around the sun for Earth and all the forms of life clinging to its surface. Not that we can really tell, but we mark this as significant anyway. Time to pull down last year's "Hooter's" calender and move on.

But hey, by our calendar it is 2010. And that's just neat.

I guess that the last year has had its ups and downs... For me, the good parts have been overshadowed by the general stress, depression, and so on and I haven't really been able to see them easily. So while I did post that I was glad to be done with 2009, it seems that further contemplation may indicate that this was a hasty conclusion.

However, rather than spend more time considering this, I'll move forward. Forward to THE FUTURE!!!
