MMVIII
2008 is almost over, strange as it’s been a topsy-turvey year for more reasons than one. Personally I don’t think this year will go in my top 5 of “Best Years Ever!” 6 months of unemployment and a world-wide economic crisis will do that I guess.
Unlike previous years, I’m not going to list my favourite CDs (She & Him’s Volume One (btw)) or movies (Dark Knight), I’m just going to let it slip silently into the night. The only real choice left is do I watch Seacrest and the re-animated corpse of Dick Clark or Carson Daly? At least Cat Deely is off this year…
Hopefully 2009 will get off to a good start, I’m guessing around January 20th, so we can all forget about this annus horribilis
