Category: Year In Review

Toll the bell ’cause it’s a brand new year

1.) Where did you ring in 2006?
You know… I can’t remember. I think I was at home. Quite possibly in bed. Ha.

2.) What was your status by Valentine’s Day?
Single. Per the norm.

3.) Were you in school (anytime this year)?
Nope. Not unless preschool counts, since I did step foot inside the one my mom works at to deliver something to her.

4.) How did you earn your keep?
By paying out the big big money (aka cash disbursement).

5.) Did you have to go to the hospital?
Yup. But on an outpatient basis only.

6.) Did you encounter the police?
Yes. I flagged some officers down after an accident, while I was on the phone with 911 trying to get them to send some. In hindsight I shoulda let those guys go, and have 911 send me some. The ones I flagged down were jerks.

7.) Where did you go on vacation?
Toronto, ONT. Peterborough, ONT. Los Angeles, Ca.

8.) What did you purchase that was over $500?
A new computer. But technically, $500 of it was for Christmas, I only had to pay the difference.

Yes, a friend I haven’t seen in a decade or so.

10.) Did you know anybody who passed away?
No.

11.) Did you run into anybody you graduated high school with?
A couple of people via MySpace. And I’ve seen people out, but haven’t spoken with them. They were busy/I was busy/etc.

I moved offices, does that count?

13.) What sporting events did you go to?
None.

14.) What concerts did you go to?
Bobby Bognar, Lonestar & Diamond Rio, Lifehouse. Also, the Rock of Ages musical. Not a concert, no – but there was amazing 80’s music.

Yes, but I voted early.

19.) What’s the one thing you thought you would never do but did in 2006?
Had two car accidents in one week. SOBS!

20.) What is one thing you regretted this year?
Having car accidents. 😉 Ha. Money spent on a trip that just wasn’t supposed to happen. I don’t regret the time spent out there, just the money spent part – if that makes any kind of sense.
