    I'm going to be at one @WeedLordVegeta 's wedding for the new year!

    overall I think that 2015 was far better year than i gave it credit for initially, because the most incredible things happened throughout it that I can't be upset with really:
    1. I went on a road trip with @Whippy to Las Vegas and spent an entire week playing Magic with her
    2. I started to learn podcasting with some of you dorks, and I've gotten to know so much more about you all since then.
    3. I started HRT, which has honestly improved my quality of life by an immeasurable amount
    4. I got together with @Cilla Black, which has also improved my quality of life by an incredible amount
    5. I have managed to maintain a GPA above 3.5 throughout the year (with maybe a few nervous breakdowns through the year)
    6. I got to make you all laugh with the saga of my LGBT studies class.
    7. I am currently sitting in bed in Ireland typing out a silly post about 2015, but for 2016 I will be ringing in the new year with my best friend in the world and his wonderful bride.

    I don't know if there's anything I would even change about this year. I'm going to focus on the great things that happened rather than the negatives.

    I had some real good pepperjack cheese at some point in 2015.

    Pepperjack is a good cheese.

    I have had health problems through most of 2015, so I'm pretty glad it's over.

    No guarantee 2016 will be any better, but at least my health is actively being worked on now sooo here's hoping.

    2015 was a pretty good year for me all and all. I have a new role that scares the crap out of me, but aligns to what I want career wise. Went to Fiji for my wife's birthday.

    Perhaps I'll make it my new years resolution to post here more, that would be healthy right?

    I feel like I slid a bit in 2015, at least on the surface.

    I went on my depression meds in 2014... I got a new job last year.. I got a new apartment last year.. I actually went to the doc last year, I went to GenCon last year, I helped playtest a game last year, so on. So 2014 was a huge leap.

    But thinking back on it... 2015 was all about establishing things and building on my successes. I was able to perform two major car repairs and be comfortable with them and their costs. My reputation at work is growing, and I'm in line for a pay raise. I've started letting go and selling some of the things I've held onto for over a decade... So while the progress has been less, it hasn't been bad. And it's still upwards, which is the important bit.

    Month by Month:

    January: Turned 28, celebrated 2 full years at my job, went to the first PAX South (first time in Texas) which was awesome.
    February: Didn't do much of anything.
    March: Got hit by a car that one of the teacher's I work with was driving. Thankfully she wasn't going too fast. Only missed a week of work. Went to PAX East (awesome).
    April - September: I don't really remember anything of significance happening except for shitty times at work.
    October: FLOPAX, which was awesome
    November - December: Nothing much. Grew a beard, though. That was neat.

    Pretty standard year when you basically avoid doing anything out of your comfort zone! Although I do think I am working towards finally going back to writing everyday/as a habit/hobby. That will be nice. I've certainly been reading more lately.

    Next year will be the real hell because now I don't have friends to see ever, and a car I don't even really need sitting in my driveway that I have to keep paying for.

    2015 was a pretty big year. I started a new job (technically I started the last two weeks of 2014 but they don't really count) and moved to a new city. Got to know a bunch of you guys a lot better, some of who have gone from "people I kind of know online" to bona fide "friends". I started podcasting.

    Gosh if I keep this sort of momentum going in 2016 who knows where I'll be.

    My sister got married.
    Kidney Stones.
    Memory Problems and memory deletions due to seizures and a small point in time where the Crohn's hit the CNS. Have spent some time rereading old posts and things, and some other stuff I wrote to myself. Odd experience.

    Got a new job where I can actually save money and plan for the future.
    Got promoted at the new job.
    Bought a ring and proposed to my girl.
    Currently in an AirBnB in Montreal with her to ring in the new year, it's pretty sweet.

    Played a ton of Bloodborne and Fallout 4.

    Listened to a bunch of Phantogram (I know Voices came out early 2014 but it's still my most played album of 2015).

    Got a promotion (kinda wish I hadn't).

    Started a relationship for the first time in over a decade.
    Had a relationship end on me for the first time in over a decade.
    Was reminded what romantic affection felt like.
    Was reminded of what the absence of affection feels like.

    Saw a new Star Wars movie. I had my problems with it but my love for Star Wars was certainly renewed by it.

    Probably going to start 2016 by buying a car.

    Found hope for my future.

    Bought a house.

    Traveled less than I'd have liked to but more than I'd intended.

    Attended my very first PAX.

    Met a bunch of new cool people both here and all over the globe.

    Adopted a doggy.

    Discovered cheese.
