AAARG No luck with the laptop so far, though I really can't complain, seeing as I did get my first snowboard for Christmas. Since I've been snowboarding for more than five years with rented equipment, this is a big and exciting step for me. Downside is, no laptop, so my SG access is still limited. I do admit to a certain reluctance in the last month to expend the energy of coming on here, but then again, in the last month, I've been reluctant to do anything that requires getting out of bed.

See, I've been incredibly sick, throwing up every day and unable to eat or drink much of anything. The upside is that I lost about ten pounds. The downside is that I actually had to get a surgical procedure done this past Tuesday, and my insurance didn't cover it. So I'm down about $500 for that, and am still recovering. The silver lining of that one is that I'm already feeling so much better! I had a slice of pizza last night!! I never thought that would be considered a minor miracle, but there we are XD

So enough ranting on my part, how was everyone else's holiday(s)? And who has kick-ass plans for New Years Eve? Happy New Year, by the way!! It's going to be amazing, I know it is. Everyone keeps saying that 2009 sucked, and I admit it had its down points (for me, both my pets died, my laptop went, I realized my fiancee was a complete moron, etc...), but why focus on the negative?? I shot two sets and submitted one of them, got great feedback on it, made a lot of new friends, turned 21, dumped the moron and got a new one (yes, a new moron, lol... this one has lots more potential though), and so much more. 2009 didn't treat me that badly, all things considered ^.^ Then again, maybe I'm just in a good mood because it's snowing again. Oh, did I mention that? I live in New Jersey--- we got two feet of snow dumped on us, give or take, right before Christmas, and now it's snowing again for New Years! YAY! And I've...

And I've planned an awesome Steampunk party tonight (you guys will totally have to see pictures from this) that I actually don't have to host, because one of my wonderful friends agreed to host it for me. I just get to do the planning, which is the part I love. So tonight is going to be epic, and I have high hopes for 2010.

Much love to everyone, and I've missed you all so much!
