For whatever reason, I thought 2017 was uneventful for me. Then I started thinking about it:

- Travel: To the offices in Copenhagen and Ottawa, to Disneyland, and to PDX for the Vampire Ball and filming of a movie cameo.

- The travel for the movie cameo involved me being flown to and from PDX in one day, because the producer wanted me there that much.

- Visits from beloved people: Kambriel and C., and Cass.

- Being a more regular guest on the Don't Read the Latin podcast.

- Being interviewed by broadly.vice.com about aging and goth.

- A local radio interview.

- Work being less insane, thanks to another writer!

- Concerts! The Damned, Chelsea Wolfe, and Fall Out Boy.

And oh hey, our 20th wedding anniversary!

So yeah, this year? Kinda eventful. :D

For 2018? Be as kind as possible to yourself and others, push pack against anyone who doesn't respect your boundaries, and hex awful people.

There are a lot of year-end memes out there, and I'm not doing ANY of them. 2011 was, with no hyperbole, the worst year of my life. Death, illness, unemployment, stress, and depression were the themes.

But there were some good things about 2011, too. I was able to spend more time with my loved ones, even the ones who don't live nearby. I went to Disneyland and the Tim Burton exhibit. I made a lot of progress on the fiction project I'm working on, and my agent is excited to see it.

But on the whole? I have never been more glad to see a year end. Next week, I am burning the 2011 calendar, because I really do need to see this year go up in flames. Literally.

May 2012 be kinder to us all. Much, MUCH kinder.

Goodbye 2011.
