- got married
- welcomed new sister-in-law and nephew (born three weeks ago!) into our family
- watched all 5 seasons of "The Wire", the bestest show ever. Seriously.
- moved into a new house closer to the city
- watched "Breaking Bad" series finale two months after it aired WITHOUT getting spoiled first (and yes, Wire > Breaking Bad)
Ok, it's kind of odd that two of my top five involved television shows. If I thought about it more, I'd add my new job, or the fact that two of my grandparents are in their nineties and still living in their own houses. Or any number of things.
But the truth is I haven't been able to dedicate myself to a longer and more thoughtful blog post in months. When I've tried, I feel myself turning inward and becoming melancholy. This happened when I was single, living alone, but I didn't mind feeling a little sad then. Part of me enjoyed indulging the melancholy. I don't want to do that now, though. So I close my blogger tab without saving. Without posting. This is one of the things I'll work on in 2014.
Anyway, it's been a good year.
