Stolen from Leola. What can I say...a good idea is a good idea.
1. What did you do in 2005 that you'd never done before?
Visited Mexico.
2. Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I don't know if actually made any resolutions that I recall. Which is good since I didn't keep any.
3. Did anyone close to you give birth?
I think that my former co-worker Beverly will be giving birth soon. We e-mail on occasion, though she still lives in Maine. Does that count?
4. Did anyone close to you die?
Nope.
5. What countries did you visit?
Canada and Mexico. I need to go to some other continents soon.
6. What would you like to have in 2006 that you lacked in 2005?
Peace, love, and understanding. And a lap dance or two.
7. What date from 2005 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?
I don't think any dates specifically stand out.
8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?
While I love Seattle, I went away more times than I ever had in a year. Quite an achievement, no?
9. What was your biggest failure?
I think my desire to be independent caused one person a bit of grief.
10. Did you suffer illness or injury?
Nothing too dramatic.
11. What was the best thing you bought?
Airfare to San Jose del Cabo..
12. Any brushes with fame?
I saw Charlize Theron in Toronto.
13. What did you do for money?
My usual office job and hooking. Lots and lots of nights as a gigolo.
14. Where did most of your money go?
Alaska Airlines and my landlord.
15. What did you get really, really, really excited about?
A late lunch at Chicago's Soul Vegetarian.
16. What song will always remind you of 2005?
I'll have to think about that one.
17. Compared to this time last year, are you:
i. happier or sadder? Much the same.
ii. thinner or fatter? Pretty close to the same.
iii. richer or poorer? Approximately the same.
18. What do you wish you'd done more of?
Exercise. Well, sort of. I do enjoy being lazy.
