The year 2009 started out with me newly divorced, and planning on starting an exciting new life in Ontario. Here's a very condensed version of how the year went down:
- I'm so excited to move!
- I'm going to start internet dating!
- Internet dating is lame and full of creeps.
- I'm so happy with my new life in Ontario. It's packed full of sunshine and rainbows. I am so happy and sickeningly positive all the time.
- Living with my brother is so awesome!
- Personal training is my new dream job!
- Help me find someplace to live! I've been given the boot.
- Thanks to an awesome co-worker and now friend, I am no longer homeless.
- My back hurts.
- I'm really poor but things will get better.
- I found a new place to live and I love it!
- The neighbors upstairs are super noisy.
- I'm 33 years old and living in a basement.
- Still poor.
- And also lonely.
- Even though I've made some good friends.
- But what happened to the sunshine and rainbows?
- I'm going to try internet dating!
- What the fuck is wrong with me? Why would I do that again. Fail.
- I have the spine of a 53 year old and will probably be wheelchair bound in a couple of years.
- Oh no wait, that's a load of bullshit to make me buy a crap load of chiropractic sessions.
- My back still hurts though.
- Wait a minute. The spiel the chiropractor fed me is strikingly similar to the one I've been told to tell potential personal training clients. Hm.
- Maybe I should get a different job that doesn't require me to do things I don't ethically agree with.
- And also doesn't turn me into a cripple.
- And also allows me to pay rent and buy food without having to borrow money from my parents.
- I'm going to try to get a job in film again!
- No jobs in film.
- Missed Halloween and my birthday because I got H1N1.
- And then pneumonia.
- But at least I got out of my crap ass lease after taking my landlord to court.
- And also found a new great apartment that is adult size.
- Got a job! Thanks to my little brother.
- Am actually looking forward to working in a call center even though it's the absolute last place I thought I'd ever be working second to McDonalds.
- I'm going to try internet dating!
- Just kidding.
I predict 2010 is going to be the year I become addicted to pain killers because I can finally afford them. It's going to be quite a ride my friends. Quite a ride. Stay tuned!

Fun! 2009 sure was turbulent, I felt it. Stupid 2009. Or is that just what life is like after you turn 30... crap.
Best year in review ever.
Here's mine. Just for you.
- went to school
- didn't sleep much
- procrastinated
- learned to knit and crochet
- joined mall-walking group
- gained 30 lbs (that was spread out though)
- and done.
Here's hoping for 2010!
30 is the new 20 dude! If when you're 20 your body starts falling apart.
Lyn, I think you might be 80. You and my hips would get along really well.
