2007 was like the slightly more ambitious sequel to the worst movie of all time, being 2006. See, 2007 literally had nowhere to go but up, so in that sense it was an improvement, but to such a minor degree that it becomes a spectacular failure all its own. I'm sorry, but the past two years of my life have been the absolute worst. 2006 saw me so low I'm sometimes surprised I made it to 2007. I had so many high hopes for the (then) new year that to still barely be able to lift my head up long enough to catch my breath was really, really disappointing. I hope to god 2008 proves different. I'm really putting my all into this. 2007 at least ended better than it began....

Great thing about life is, It goes in cycles. Your shit will turn around if u give it time.
for me the years 2001 to 2004 were the worst years of my life. 2005 it started turning around and now 2007 and 2008 have been two of the most amazing years of my life.

Highs:
My wife hated where we were living and her job, so we moved back home and she is going back to school, and I'm really happy that she's so much happier (and straight A's her first semester back).
My best friend had a baby and calls me "uncle," which is cool. Fake uncles rule!
Colts won the Superbowl...without cheating, Pats fans!
Cubs made the playoffs...let's make a real showing in '08!
My political beliefs really solidified a lot as I thought them through considerably
They still make single malt Scotch whisky...it's still good.
They still make craft brews...they're still good.
Axl and Baz were cool together, though Baz gets most of the credit and a lot of applause for making one helluva album.
Lows:
I have a good family friend who's had cancer...well, for years now. He just can't seem to get over it, and he's honestly the nicest person (well...maybe second to his wife) that I know. Hoping '08 is an improvement for him.
Still a slave to the capitalist system of oppression (that one's partially for WAT-EVER...wherever he is and whatever model he's banging).

it's been a horrible year for me in almost all aspects, that ended with a bang: the death of my much loved grandfather on the 23rd of December.
Highs: The good friends I had around me, and I did go to quite a few gigs including the Led Zeppelin one.
