the year that was

I’m lazy and have been crazy busy drinking myself to death, so I haven’t had time to do my year end review from 2008. No worries, I’ll get to it now.

January: It snows in SLO county. I move in over at Hobo Island. Heath Ledger dies. The Seahawks fuck up the playoffs.

February: I count down to St Patricks Day with an Irish Drinking song a day.

March: The Rides of March come back to town. I have my 1st annual St Patricks Day party at Hobo Island.

April: My cat Azriel runs away and comes home. Baseball (aka Screaming at the Red Sox) Season starts.

May: My first boyfriend and good friend Christopher comited suicide. My boyfriend loses his job on the same day. I make a mistake and try to befriend a girl at work who ultimately went on to help ruin my life. I attend a beer fest, bbq and a reggae festival all in one day.

June: I go to the Jameson Bartender’s Ball. I travel to Bakersfield for my friend’s memorial.

July: I introduce the internet to hobo vodka. My friend Joy has a baby. I turn 29 and nearly die of alcohol poisoning with my best friends.

August: I meet James Dewees.

September: I get laid off. I run away to Indio. I meet The Slackmistress and BeTheBoy and sleep on their couch.

October: My Red Sox don’t go to the World Series. I realize being unemployed is boring. My boyfriend sleeps through Halloween.

November: I go to Los Angeles to see Julien-K with my friend Amber. I spend a week in Bakersfield getting drunk and doing stupid shit.

December: I give my family a damn good Christmas even though I’m totally broke. I go out drinking the night before New Years. I win a twitter award. I contemplate jumping a guy at football to steal his throwback jersey.
