Didn't See the Ball Drop

My New Year's Eve was awesome, except that Hubs wasn't around to kiss me at midnight. Last year we celebrated with thousands of Italians on the Spanish Steps in Rome. This year, one of my besties and I went to dinner, got hot chocolate, went home, put on pajamas, and watched television shows about polygamy. I was asleep by 11 pm.

And you know what? 2010 arrived without me, and I'm looking forward to it! In the past decade, I:

graduated from high school

graduated from college

graduated from graduate school

fallen in love

proposed to my boyfriend

became a wife

moved to Europe

been unemployed

worked for The Man

cooked a cake from scratch

learned to drive a manual car

watched a sunset in Santorini

had 2 surgeries

worked my worst job

lobbied in Washington DC

lived in Morocco

met the girls I call my closest friends, now scattered in MO, WI, MA, IL, NY

celebrated Christmas Eve with a German family

ran 2 half marathons

drove across the country too many times to count

Etc, etc, etc.

Here's to another great decade! Cheers.
