In 2007, I...
January...Looked back over 2006. Decided it wasn't half bad. Decided my anti-resolution would be to go after the things I really wanted, instead of waiting for them to arrive in my life.
February...Celebrated my 28th birthday at Trader Vic's, the fabulous tiki bar, with a Scorpion Bowl and some crappy burlesque dancers. Rode home with Stu with my head out the window and tried to sleep on my front porch. Met Katie and started working with VDay Atlanta and preparations for the Vagina Monologues. Found out my friendship with Katie was quite serendipitous. I have no idea if serendipitous is a word.
March...Ran my second half marathon - the inaugural ING Atlanta race. Cursed the lack of powerade on the course. Continued to work on the VDay show and met amazing, amazing people.
April...Took a super fun drive to Nashville with Stephen to run my third half marathon - the Country Music race - with 30,000 other runners. Ran the best race I've had so far. Met Eve Ensler, Jane Fonda, Sara Blakely, Pearl Cleague at the Vagina Monologues. Began an unfortunate preoccupation with a musician.
May...Got the go ahead to organize a reading of A Memory, a Monologue, a Rant and a Prayer. Figured it would be a small reading at a coffee shop or a bookstore or something. Went to my 10 year high school reunion. Also attended the very sad ceremony for the destruction of Wilson Chapel and said goodbye to my college theater.
June...Swore of musicians. Listened to a lot of depressing music. Decided to get over it already.
July...Met Baton Bob. Worked like crazy on the show. Experience my very sad departure from my old firm.
August...Continued to work like crazy on the show. Started a new job at a new firm. Didn't quite realize how much I would hate it. Got an article in the Peach Buzz and felt famous for a day. Went to Corndogorama and watched the greatest corn dog eating competition ever. Realized I really like watching competetive eating, which I still don't quite understand.
September...Attended a pirate party and almost bought a limosuine with Jeff and Khari. Had the greatest experience of my life so far with the show. Had my fifteen minutes. Went to the bathroom and had girl talk with Emily Saliers, who told me I could produce any event anywhere if I wanted to. Tried to figure out what that meant for my life. Lamented the loss of my flooded trusty of 94 Honda Accord and laid her to rest.
October...Drove to New Orleans to get my passport because I procrastinated. Went to Mexico for Eric's wedding with Jennifer, had the best time ever. Rode in a Mexican taxi, drank the most wonderful mojitos I've ever tasted. Skinny dipped in the ocean under a sky full of shooting stars. Started really, really trying to find a new job. Said goodbye to Khari. Began to really, really hate my job every day. Dressed up as Carmen Miranda for Halloween. Made the most ridiculous fruit hat and couldn't wear it because it was so heavy. Sort of hated couples and their couple-ey stuff. Got my new tatoo, which hurt way more than the first one. Picked out pumpkins in Dahlonega with Laura and Diana. Almost got kicked out of the pumpkin patch for playing in the corn field without paying.
November...Started wearing leggings. Stopped hating couples so much. Made my third orphan Thanksgiving dinner. Cooked for two days straight. Met cute Tony.
December...Started painting again. Realized I must be getting old because 2007 went by so fast, as did the month of December. Couldn't believe it was Christmas again.
And 2008 remains to be seen...
