Today is my birthday, which brings to an end one of the most tumultuous years of my life so far.  In the past year, I gained a stepmother but lost my father.  I traveled to Costa Rica, Yellowstone National Park, Miami, Atlanta, New Hampshire.  I fell in love and moved in with him.  I wrote for a television show and starred on that same television show.  I made lots of funny things for the internet.  I tried new things, like beef tongue (yum!) and sweetbreads (barf).  I laughed so hard over a plate of cheese I thought I was going to throw up.  I made my own Halloween costume from scratch.  My laptop crashed and I paid too much to get a few priceless items back.  I was voted Webutante Queen (!). I lost touch with some friends and became close to new ones.  I saw Third Eye Blind twice.  A good friend moved to LA, and one just as good moved back.  I wrote a lot.  I watched an obscene amount of improv but didn’t take 401.  I had a really great new experience.  Someone stole my bank account and went on a Home Depot shopping spree.  I loved Milk, was disappointed by Benjamin Button, and hated Revolutionary Road.  I cooled it with the hoodies.  I saw David Byrne in concert.  I made some mistakes.  I got to watch a taping of Saturday Night Live from the writer’s room.  I went on a private tour of the White House.  I read a lot of books and plan to keep it up.  I got an iPhone.  I hosted two CH Live shows and met some incredible fans.  I got really, really into Battlestar.  The candidate I voted for got elected as I watched in a bar with my brother.  I cried a lot and smiled even more. 

So I guess all that’s left to say is thanks.  Here’s to the start of another one!

Happy Birthday Sis! All that’s left to do in 2k9 is… tattoos?
