2010: Can I Get an "Amen?"


Thank the ever-lovin' Lord it's finally New Year's Eve. Because seriously, I am ready to kick 2009 in its crappy, worthless, bad-luck-having, hard-knock-bringing ASS. In the grand tradition of such a heinous year, these last few days have draaaaaaagged by. It's like when you tell your kid to go to his room, and he goes, but he takes his sweet time and shuffles his feet and like runs his fingers slowly down the hallway wall on his way. This year might be going away, but it sure isn't exiting gracefully. It's all, "Fine, I'll leave, but I'm going to poop on your floor on the way out."

I wish I could divulge to every one of you why this year has been one of the worst of the 29 I've spent on this planet. But you know what? That's too much pain and negativity, and this ain't that kinda blog, yo. Suffice it to say that my grandmother's unexpected death, the piss-poor economy, and the final sad realization that my biological father is indeed the biggest asshat that ever walked the face of the earth all played a part. And I'm so done with '09. It gave me my little Coby, but that's about it - so I'm takin' my baby and running headlong into 2010. Better times, here we come!

Happy, happy New Year everyone - thanks for being a part of my life thus far. Lots of love and wishes for a bright and beautiful new decade!!!

    I'm sorry you had a bad 2009. If I had known I would have shared some of my 2009 with you. It was pretty good, not magical cheesecake with no calories good, but at least cupcake with sprinkles good.

    May 2010 be your magic cheesecake year!

  11. My mom always said "what your doing at midnight on New Years, is what you'll be doing the whole year".... This is the ONE thing I hope she's wrong about...(Because i was doing dishes, and yelling at my teenager)!! Here's to you mom, hope your wrong. To everybody else, Happy New Year.

  12. I hope that 2010 is better for all of us. The unexpected death of Grandma was the one that really made this year bad but then we did have the arrival of Coby that made it better. I feel that Grandma is up in heaven with Grandpa looking down on us and will be in our hearts forever all we have to do is hold on to the memories of the good times that we had when she was here with us.

  17. I'm sorry that you had such a stinkin' year. I hope 2010 is much, much better for you. (And, as one who has two rotten bio parents, you have my sympathies.)

    Here's a bright spot for *my* 2010...reading your fabulous blog written by a fantastic woman!! :-)

  20. Well happy 2010 to YOU! Sounds like you needed a new year! :) Better luck this time!

    For us it was 2008 - 2009 has been a much better year. Hopefully 2010 will rock!

  22. Say that! Say that! Can we say Win- in 2010?

  23. ...I began 2010 by having my appendix removed (good times), falling out with family, and continuing to lose my mommy mind. It seems that almost everyone I know had similarly festive trios of horror in 2009. I love your blogging frankness and am wishing you the best in 2010.
