What else did you enjoy this year?
Nothing in particular but generally being privileged enough to have consistent company of basically awesome peoples makes everything more or less OK

2008 was…
…pretty lame to be honest aside from all the stuff listed above and a few other obvious good things in American politics etc.

2009 will be…
…maybe alright, maybe not.
