If we were trees, the ring for 2009 would be bloated, banged up, discolored, and pockmarked. This was the year where I almost got divorced, where I almost got to work with Zack Galifinakis and Robert Downey Jr. (lol, I auditioned for a movie with them, but I didn't meet them) where I worked the most in the film/tv industry, the year that my last grandparent died, I found journal entries from my g-g-grandfather's trip from England to Utah to be one of the first LDS polygamists, I finally got fit like I used to be, I made new friends, I helped put one pf the FLDS jerks in jail, I figured out what was wrong with my manuscript, I met up with old friends, channeled my inner-high schooler at a boss 80s party, and it was the year that I gained a teenager (from a pre-teen.)This was the year I finally went sky diving. More than once.
I wrote a bunch, I screwed around without writing much at all, I got new ideas, and played a ton of mahjohng. I cooked, made things, traveled to SXSW, 'Bama, Florida, and Vegas, all to hang with beloved friends, figured out a bunch of stuff about myself (yay, therapy!) and didn't make a single damn promise to do anything last New Years, so I'm going to keep that up this year. I solemnly swear to be me, to mess up, to figure things out, to talk too much, love too hard, be irritating, feed people, try and fix things, sit on my ass more than I should, read too much, read too little, watch too much, miss all the shows I should be watching, dig in my yard, drink, laugh, cry, and play with my dog. If self improvement hitches a ride, then that's cool, I'm just going to keep on keeping on.
Happy 2010, let's try to not dick this year up. I'm spending the day making tamales (how 2 and pics to come Monday) and listening to good music, great way to start things off, imo. :)
(And for those who care about such things, and let's face it, my slight OCD tendencies enjoy the organization, here's a list of fannish things I wrote.
Dennis and Dee Go All The Way Dennis and Dee are siblings, first of all. Second of all, if you're not watching It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia then I'm judging you. That show is the balls.
Letters Between Edward Cullen and Fangtasia If y'all haven't figured out that the Cullenses are Mormons, I don't know what to tell you. Edward rides his bike in his suit and tries to convert the vampires of Fangtasia via letters and voicemail messages. Whee, crackfic!
Nice Work If You Can Get It Jason/Pam with Eric - Pam's on assignment. And it's [Insert title here.] *G*[True Blood/Sookie Books]
It's Twilite, Innit? CHAV-version of Twilight, hilarity ensues.

Awright, babies, tell ya mama I axed how she durrin.

How did I miss "Letters Between..."? I wish I had time right this minute, but i have to go get the Black-eyeds on for eating along with hockey at Fenway Park! I'll play catch up later.

Date: 2010-01-01 05:27 pm (UTC)Isn't that show wonderfully awful?! It makes me laugh every time. Oh, Dee, being just as rotten (if not moreso at times) than the boys. Love it. I like do Artemis impressions on my way to auditions, too. Ha!
BLACK EYEDS. Yum! I've got some cooking up with some rotel, chipotles and a salad to accompany the tamales. HAPPY NEW YEAR, SWEETHEART.

Date: 2010-01-04 06:51 pm (UTC)I must say that I am grateful you write about your opinion of your past religious affiliations so freely. Growing up Mormon myself I have a hard time finding anyone that has such similar thoughts to my own on the whole Thing (as I cannot think of any other word to define Mormonism and the 'Thing' that is being Mormon as it's so much more than a title). You do, however, articulate and present your opinions in a much more eloquent manner than I ever could. Mostly my thoughts boil down to: Polygamy?! WTF is this stuff? Grrr!

Date: 2010-01-04 07:13 pm (UTC)I am sure it will be years yet before I fully realize anything substantial about my youth and involvement in the Mormon Church - I'm still in the numb, 'can't believe I devoted so much to That' phase, and any insight I achieve at this point can only be assessed for it surface value. But, I am sure future self analysis will be fruitful.
I've added you to my flist, so a discussion member I will become :P

Date: 2010-01-02 12:51 am (UTC)i live in Columbus, OH now, and the only mexican restaraunt that served real tamales* closed when i wasn't looking!
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO LIVE WITHOUT TAMALES?!?!?
so i eagerly await your monday post, when hopefully i am able to follow your instructions to make my own. because living a life without tamales is not something i want to do! *sob*
*tamales should NOT be made with CHICKEN, and for the love of all that's tasty REALLY should NOT be made with TOFU. i mean, tofu has it's place, but that place is NOT wrapped in a tamale!!!

Date: 2010-01-05 12:22 am (UTC)i like tamales that have, say, pork and chicken. not JUST chicken. i really prefer just pork [probably because that's the only kind i had as a kid].
the tofu i just do NOT understand. it's evil, it is. i like tofu, in some things. NOT TAMALES!
meh. people are crazy here in Ohio. tofu in tamales proves it.
