Auld lang syne:
Presenting the Dirty Fez 2004 Year in Review! Hooray.
In January, I had my first annual "Break Your Resolutions" party. It was a resounding success and so I am going to repeat it again next weekend. The theme? "Break Your Resolutions 2: Electric Boogaloo". That shit never gets old. Also in January: readers voted on which boy I should date and I got my heart broken by one of them, I met people from Metafilter, had a mysterious flu-like illness, and spent a lot of time with China Vagina. A good start to a good year.
February saw me get a cold, hatch a crazy marriage scheme, cry tears of joy when same-sex couples got married in San Francisco, expose a potential romantic relationship with someone who reads my blog, create the Boobs in the Face™ theme for my 30th year, and confess to my crush on Brian Greene. Mmm, string theory.
In March, there were ides and shit. Also, I volunteered as an election official for the first time, wrote an ode to cheesy arena rock, made a 'zine, went to a comic book convention, and almost touched Anthony Michael Hall's butt. All in all, kind of a run-of-the-mill month for me.
April involved too much work and tv watching. I also scored some awesome paintings at Artwalk and started and ended a mini-relationship. Eventful yet uneventful at the same time!
In May, I officiated my big brother's wedding, fell in love, got a cold that lasted for a month, spoke at a conference, shot a bajillion great photographs, spent time with people I hadn't seen in far too long, wrote one serious post, and enjoyed one of the most insane emotional rollercoaster months of my life.
June saw craziness at work, big bonuses, big concerts, big shopping sprees, big drinking, big vomiting after said big drinking, and more big shopping sprees. It was generally just big.
In July, I transferred to a new job in the Big Corporation and began a hectic travel schedule. It started in Canada and ended in Vegas. It included a trip to a comic book convention, where I met Elvis. It was also about the time that my energy levels started diving into the shitter. But I still went to VEGAS, even though I was exhausted. Because it's fucking VEGA$.
August brought with it lots more travel and MY BIRTHDAY! That is why August is the most important month. Because I was born. I went to NYC and Philly and wore a tiara. I also went to Texas and my hair became large. FUN!
September was learning month. I learned to play poker, install and configure some new software products, talk like a pirate (well, who am I kidding, I already knew how to do that. yaaaarrrr!), and that I am the best travel ninja in the universe.
October was busy. I went to a geek conference, took a road trip home from it, won at video poker, nearly punched Jim Tracy in the larynx, went to New York, nursed a crush, opened for Artwalk, came up with a fantastic idea for the next one, had a major blowout, watched my Yankees lose again, went to Chicago for the first time, and got food poisoning. Eventful and occasionally nauseating!
November was another rollercoaster. My election hopes were dashed, but I saw a record voter turnout at my precinct. I bought a new camera. I traveled a lot, as per usual, and had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
December included fun things such as confessing my addictions, inappropriate usage of power tools, comment spam, birthdays, cleavage, high heels, a Vegas wedding, and Xmas domesticity.
All in all, it was a fabulous year. I'm happy that my friends, family, and readers were all here to share it with me. I hope your year was as good and that next year is even better. I love all of you motherfuckers.
