Assisted Flashing Back
It would be too easy to just say 2009 sucked and be done with it. It brought a lot of stress and heartache, and gutted my business, but there were some plusses, even if I had to browse the archives here to remember some of them.
January: Our third Penguin Plunge together, a quick trip to Pismo Beach and Morro Bay, and the arrival of the magic Roku box.
February: Cal Rugby.
March: Turned 45.
April: Las Vegas and La Reve.
May: Still married, despite the best efforts of the H8ers. Baseball.
June: Pismo Beach (again) and the San Luis Obispo farmers’ market. First anniversary of our marriage.
July: Comic-Con. New car.
August: Body surfing championships in Oceanside.
September: Triton Invitational water polo.
October: Disneyland, and the decision to become annual passholders.
November: Thanksgiving in Las Vegas with the in-laws and my little brother.
December: Christmas and a new laptop from Santa.
Sure it had some rough spots, but despite whatever else I can say, 2009 certainly wasn’t all bad.
