I've been having a really productive week, since, well, last Wednesday (which was the day after semester's end at my tutoring job). Finished writing the third chapter in my new book, started crafting a six-suit deck of cards, and had a board-game holiday with my family (we NEVER get around the playing board games, so this was pretty spectacular).
2012 was pretty suck-tacular in the first three quarters, but I think it's turning around. Probably because it's over!
This year I:
Published my second novel, Empty Moon
Lost my manx cat Smaug, of 7 years, to a bladder blockage
Found out I had unusual liver levels
Got an Asus EP-121 tablet, which is awesome
Started a blog
Lost our family pug, Louis of 12 years, to a stroke
Had a liver biopsy, which caused a Biloma and (seemingly) permanent nerve damage in the region of my bottom right rib
Found out I have Fatty Liver Disorder and SZ Phenotype Alpha 1 Antitrypsin Deficiency
Published an expansion to my role-playing game, Cayenne Quarry
Ditto'd with a reduction, Soup Fork
Became a Moderator at AGN!
Saw Wreck-it Ralph (2012), which is now tied with Tank Girl (1995) for my favorite movie of all time
Started writing my third novel, Flowers for Isolda
Had a job interview
blew it
and
played board games with my family
Overall, I guess it wasn't such an unbearable year.
So how did everybody else fare for 2012? Any big losses? (Hurricane Sandy certainly was a big one.) Any winning moments?
EDIT: Huh, this is my seven-hundredth post. Only took ten years!
