35 Weeks 5 Days: End of the World... I Mean Year

It's the end of 2009 and like always, it's time to make some year-end / new-year lists:

MEMORABLE MOMENTS FROM 2009:
- Knocking up Krystal.
- Buying a trailer and then selling it because I needed the money.
- Deciding not to switch jobs.
- Going snowboarding for the first time.
- Cutting the tip of my finger off with a circular saw.
- Finding out that my friend Lish got a book deal. Way to go Lish!
- Sold my old 1969 F250 for scrap metal.

THINGS I DISCOVERED TO BE AWESOME IN 2009:
- Flight of the Conchords
- Zombieland
- Bad Astronaut
- Glee

THINGS THAT WERE NOT-SO-AWESOME IN 2009:
- Seeing Transformer 2 in the theater.
- Cutting the tip of my finger off (still not as bad as Transformers 2).
- Realizing that I can't play guitar with my aforementioned finger injury... Still can't. Possibly gonna switch to drums.
- Deciding to change careers - who am I kidding? I'm a builder.
- A Band called "Owl City". Somebody wants to be Ben Gibbard.
- Dropping my iPhone and shattering the screen. Though I still have the same phone and it still work just fine. Way to go Apple.
- Glue down solid bamboo flooring.

MOVIES THAT KICKED ASS:
- Zombieland
- Star Trek
- The Boat That Rocked (name changed to Pirate Radio, psht)
- The Hurt Locker
- Taken

MOVIES THAT SUCKED HARD:
- Transformers 2
- Jennifer's Body
- Extract
- Year One
- Land of the Lost

WHAT I LISTENED TO THE MOST:
- The Fray 'The Fray'
- All That Remains 'The Fall of Ideals'
- Foo Fighters 'Mixed CD'
- Green Day '21st Century Breakdown'
- Shooter Jennings 'Electric Rodeo' & 'The Wolf'
- Social Distortion 'Sex, Love & Rock N Roll'

THINGS I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO IN 2010:
- Poppy Soleil
- Zombieland 2???
- To find out what happens to Tom Everett Scott's character in Southland.
- Flight of the Conchords Season 3.
- Maybe being able to play guitar again???
- Keeping my business going even though the economy is bad.
- Reading Lish's book.
- Fallout New Vegas.

THINGS I WANT TO DO IN 2010:
- Get another trailer (and not sell it).
- Get a drum set and a piano and get better at playing them both.
- Finally start my Rosetta Stone Spanish language software.
- Pay off bills.
- Not see the movie 'Frozen'. Seriously, look up the trailer and then plan on NOT seeing it as well.
- Have my child be alive and unharmed (for the most part) by 2011.
- Do the robot more often... Or the robo-boogie. Both are acceptable.
