Happy New Year

A couple of days late...

Here are my 2009 predictions

1. I will change careers. I'm not sure exactly when or how or to what, but this is the year.

2. I will move... once again- where, how, and when are not clear.

3. The spread of HIV in third world countries will begin to drop do to the new administration (hopefully) lifting some of the regulations against helping sex workers stay safe, or at least educating them about it.

4. The world perception of American IQ levels will rise because the president of the United States will no longer pronounce the word nuclear, nuke-you-lar.

5. Jasmine will figure out how to keep from biting her nails.

6. Mini will learn how to fetch.

7. We will (Andy, Jasmine, and I), by this time next year, live under one roof.

8. Conservatives will continue to disagree with a lot of my opinions but probably not so much that they stop talking to me altogether... except my brother who will take exception to the Happy Kwanza card I send him. Go figure... And maybe my Aunt who might accidentally find an Obama bumper sticker on her car.

9. I will find a literary agent who thinks I'm brilliant.

10. I will look back on 2009 as the best year I've had in nearly a decade.

Since I'm not a conservative, I'm looking forward to more of your opinions!

Good luck on all fronts. Happy 2009!

Very interesting little bits here, Marilyn

I'm with Travis. You can say just about anything non-conservative and I will probably agree with you. :)

Here's hoping we both have a new year that's a LOT better than 2008 was.

I'm psyched to hear that you will share a roof with your husband. :)

Also-don't be bullied by those who don't respect your opinions simply because they are different than their own-especially on your own blog!
