plunkybugI did not want to do the meme where you re-write the first line of previous posts, but I figured I would highlight some things that have happened in 2005.
Haircut: I got a new haircut in January. I chopped about 5 inches or so. It was a big change. I had gone from hair that was well past my shoulders, to a style that barely touched them. Using shampoo was a challenge for a bit, because I didn't have to use as much as I had previously. Hard habit to break. I think that the haircut led to other good things this year. In November I went a little shorter.
Culture: At the beginning of the year, chas took on a position at a local paper (I say local, but it was like 30 miles away) as the arts editor. What that meant for us is that we got free tickets to a lot of art events. I saw my first opera, The Mikado, this way. I also saw Aida a few months later. I saw naked man in the fringe show Dragness of God, and more drag queens bonding as a family in Ladies of Eola Heights. Fantastic shows. I saw a handful of other plays in a variety of places, and got invited to an artists birthday brunch at a fancy hotel. And of course, as always, we went to the Florida Film Festival.
Doctor Who: Back and better than ever! Still love The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances episodes best of all. "Are you my mummy?"
New glasses: I know it may seem odd, but after I had gotten my new haircut in January, I spotted a pair of glasses at a shop where Chas was getting his new pair. With the haircut and haircolor I had been using for a bit, I just felt they were needed, as part of the new image I seemed to be creating. They were not that expensive, and I paid them off in bits. I like my new glasses. :)
New job: I finally got the nerve and motivation to get a new job. And I did. Man, it couldn't have come at a better time, since my car died mid-training, and the new job is really close to work. The job has been great, and I am glad I got it. :)
Penny: For those of you who know about her, you'll know that this is a big change for me, and hopefully for the better. For those who don't know what I am talking about, don't worry, you're not supposed to know. Sorry. That's all I am saying on that.
Well, that's about it, as far as what I can remember as being the bigger highlights.
