2009 Memories Meme


Before we jump fully into 2010, lets get the last crappy year off our shoes by taking one look back at 2009.

Best Person Of 2009 - Chelsey Sullenburger - felt bad about losing library book after it was ruined in the water landing he made on the Hudson River. Are you kidding me? How awesome a human being is THAT?

Worst Person of 2009 - Carrie Prejean - Former Miss California and current solo artist. When you are more of a hypocrite than Sarah Palin that is saying something.

Best Major Motion Picture For You - 'Hurt Locker' and 'Up'

Worst Major Motion Picture For You - 'Transformers - Revenge of the Fallen'

Best New TV Progam - 'Modern Family'

Best Returning TV Program - '24'

Person Who Most Inspired You - My Mom - she goes to work out everyday and will be 70 this year. I can only hope to be 1/10 the 'Iron Lady' she is.

New Skill You Learned This Year - Humility - I learned that some people don't really appreciate when they are told that their beliefs or likes are stupid - just as much as I hate it when it happens to me.

What Skill You Already Had That You Improved On - My writing. Blogging is awesome for that. To think that so many people would appreciate my crack addled posts and actually 'GET' me (and LIKE me) is both hilarious and validating. I love finding people, who just like me, need only a bit of encouragement to shine.

One Resolution You Know You Can Keep - To become the 'Most Interesting Man in the World'.

Biggest Letdown Of The Year - Lisa - 'nuff said

Blogging Resolution - To continue to only leave positive (though sometimes snarky) comments on other people's blogs. Like my Dad I try to find something to appreciate about everyone's journey and let them know I feel that way. If you do that it is usually returned to you.

Total Silly, Most Self-Centered Regret - Trimming my beard after growing it for more than 2 years. It was almost one of those great Victorian Steampunk facial works of art - SIGH - Starting again from near scratch on that one. I had a hot biker chick in her full leathers come up to me in the bar and stroke my beard and tell me it was the sexist one she had every seen. Are you hearing that? A BIKER CHICK!
