May This Be Forgot.

Ahh.
The last day of 2008.
Goddamnned stinking bleak evil oozing pustule of a year.
Not going to miss it! Not going to look back and say, oh, 2008. What a great year that was! Nope, it’s more like, oh! remember that nice thing when we, um, ah, and oh yeah! there was that fun time, no, never mind, oh! we went, no, wait, that was the year before. (The only thing I/Humanity might possibly remember it as is “the Beginning of the End”, but I’m Not! Thinking! About that right now.) Yeah. Pretty crappy year all around. Lost a job I’d liked, got crammed into a closet and a job I hated, didn’t get a nice vacation, got a stressed out and miserable husband, subsequently have had better years in the marriage department, dealt with the extreme stress of a new job, my poor sister shattered her ankle and is having surgery as we speak, the bottom dropped out of the world’s piggybanks and I developed acne.
Sucks.
(All I need is a dead dog and an esploded pickup truck and I’d have a hit song on my hands.)
So! Go out there and party folks! I hereby enable your alcohol poisoning session with a sponsored (sponsored in the sense that I’m telling you to do it, I have no money and I don’t speak English) toast to me, and may 2009 be better for us all.
And if it isn’t, may all of our suicide pacts be honored.
Amen.
