Well - it's the last day of the year.

I can't help but look back on the year I've had, and, well - it's not been a wonderful one. There've been wonderful moments in it, which I'll list below in a tick, but on the whole, it's been a year of healing for me. I emerge from it battered, healed, and a helluva lot wiser. And rejuvinated. I am once more the bold, excitable, optimistic woman I used to be.

Though, it's going to be 2005 in like, twelve or so hours. I really do feel like I've been mugged by Father Time and the bastard took my early twenties with him. Prick. Oh well. I have my health, my family, my cats - I'm happy, I really am.

What I did this year:

- Wrote some awesome songs.
- Did some beautiful pictures.
- Met some awesome people.
- Saw some excellent movies.
- Fell totally and utterly in love.
- Wrote some awesome stories.
- Got a really great haircut.
- Bought some very lovely clothes.
- Had really awesome work experience.
- Kissed a lot of wonderful people.
- Played with more people's pink bits in the span of twelve months than any other twelve months of my life.
- Did remarkably well in a test I'd thought I'd piss down my leg.
- Applied for TAFE College. Whether I get in is next year's story.
- Sang in front of a group of people and had the applause drown me. (Thank you, frequenters of Loop Nightclub (rip for now) ).
- Took too much drugs and promptly gave up said drugs because they're not fun for me.
- Drank far too much alcohol than is healthy.
- Had an entire year's worth of my mother's brilliant cooking.
- Actually learnt the meaning of that stupid adage "If you love someone, let them go."
- Made the most of my three beautiful children - er - cats. :)

The only thing I regret about this year was that I didn't manage to buy a new pair of comfortable and attractive shoes. I mean it. I want a pair of strappy leather sandals, NOT pointy with a back on it and no pointy heels. Is that too much to ask?! It's on my to-do list for next year. - Find good sandals.

Love you all, kisses to you all. Let's party! (and raise money for those lost).

You sure did! All true! *g* And thanks for sharing them all with us. I really did love the haircut photos. And the song that you did with your brother Scotty? Love listening to it. :) You're absolutely loffly and sweet. I wish you the best for the coming year. May you have another splendiferous year!

*huggles*

Oh and, hope you find those sandals you wanted. Much loff and kisses to you too, d00d! <3 And I'm definitely gatherin' up to make a donation.

You rock, man. And I'm so touched you've listened to "Break Me" more than once. I'm really chuffed, you don't know how much that has made my day! *grin* (As well as another wonderful person enjoying my Cabaret song performances :) )

*grins*

Aw, thanks. You're sweet. I'm glad to hear it made your day. :)

[logansrogue.livejournal.com]

Oh it totally did. :) "Break Me" was from the heart, and when you put your soul into a song like that, hearing that it is a repeated enjoyment for people is like mother's milk. Creatively. Yeah. LOL.

talking about shoes... if you see a pair of cherry red marry janes anywhere, can you tell me about it...

what were the shoes you wanted... I might see if there are any in melbourne when I am there in march. I know a place that makes shoes and are resonably priced, however they will take up to 4 weeks to complete and I only have 2 in melbourne. not good when they have to size you at the start and near the end

These sandals I crave were in the style of roman sandals, or 'caligae' as they were known at the time. Yet my ones were beautifully plaited leather with a zip-up back - *sigh* So gorgeous and very hippy. I wish I had a pair like that again, I'd feel so pretty. If you see a pair - lemme know, man.

Happy New Year darling ;)

its 1am here on new years eve so I stil have 24 hours of this year left, no idea how I am going to spend them, but thinking about it makes me want to not sleep and just go do some goofy shit, grab some friends and go wreak havok :D

alas I have no means of transportation and my friends live in the 4 corners of the country so I'll have to settle for drinking with my family and playing poker.

have a good new year and I hope that 2005 brings you better things

[logansrogue.livejournal.com]

Thanks, sweety. I hope the next year is good for you, too. I spent the night with my family and we sang songs and drank wine and it was wonderful. Don't regret my choice of staying for a second (there was another party with inebriated exes and so forth, but I chose against that as a matter of self-worth). A good start to the year already! :)
