I know that all serious pundits and news outlets compile end of the year lists, and I take myself quite serious, so why shouldn't I put together a little list. I haven't spent much time thinking about these...nonetheless, I feel that my list is quite accurate and irrefutable. Can I get a drum roll, please?
Thank you. Here are my big moments for 2011...
Sad News of the Year
Of course, the loss of my father was the saddest event of the year.
Biggest Adjustment of the Year
Living without Andrew on a daily basis. I want to be able to hear his laugh and squeeze him whenever I want.
Best Decision of the Year
The decision to co-parent was a no brainer. I think that these first few months of the divorce have been easier on Andrew because his father and I actively choose to cooperate and to work as a team for Andrew.
Purchase of the Year
The Mini, as if there could be another.
Concert of the Year
I know that many of you might think that the Rochester Castle show will be my choice, but it's not! I choose, instead, the June 11 Squeeze warm-up gig at the Pelton Arms. Small venue, big smile from my singer as I walk in, and the guys blow the roof off the house. That perfomance cannot be topped.
Night of the Year
Monday, April 4 - Evanston, Illinois.
Student Quote of the Year
About an assignment for which students had to find two obituaries, someone said, "So both of them have to be about dead people?"
Road Trip of the Year
London! London! London!
Drink of the Year
Bailey's
Deadly Sin of the Year
This was a close race, but sloth beats out lust, though just barely.
Accomplishment of the Year
Publishing my first short story.
Discovery of the Year
I am stronger and more capable than I had ever believed.
