welcome to 2009

tho i have to say that so far it looks (and feels) a lot like 2008. funny that...

(i'm a bit tired, so you'll have to insert your own 'reflecting on a year past' puns.)

at least i'm caught up on the blips now (xmassy backblipping from here if you're interested). not even begun catching up on everyone else's blips tho... *sigh* time off always looks like a good idea, doesn't it!
