For all things Un-Blog-Worthy.

"How the hell does this qualify as a blog!?" - Ben Meyers, November 2010.

Platinum J.D.L

Today's blog comes live from my desk at work; with an unnecessarily intense hangover and zero inspiration as to pointless or unintersting topics to make interesting points about. So it got me thinking, maybe it's time to recap. I was just reading a blog where the author had 2010 listed as a "dislike". It seems crazy to me that everybody is experiencing such different lives all at once; where 2010 has been the best year of my life but for a lot of others it has been very sub-par.

As much as I'd like to continue on with an inspirational piece about butterfly effects or how backpackers are riding llama's through Peru while you're riding the stairs to the second floor on a bean bag; it turns out I am very unintersted in other peoples lives. So let us focus on me. Last night was housewarming party for our new three level house at Aurora. It's hard to complain when you live literally three metres from a ski run and chair lift on a mountain you get to snowboard for free, but the stupid neighbours with their stupid kids did (jokes about the stupid part). The start of 2010 had good vibes; not unlike the way you can almost taste bakery food with your nose. You just know it's gonna taste better than it smells.

Now guys, I know my blog's are very mundane and pointless, so it makes it seem like I have nothing better to do or have a lot of anger or frustration built up inside of me; but this couldn't be further from the truth. Truth is, I'm not too sure if it was 2010 that has made 2010 so good. Do you compliment a roast chicken on how it tastes? No. You thank the chef and dig in. The main reason why 2010 has been a platinum year, in a word, me. I don't think I've ever been so content with myself as I have been this year, and I know that 2011 will just continue to be epic because it's not just about what has happened in the year, but moreso about my attitude. My zen-like awesomeness and subsequent narcissism doesn't look to be fading anytime soon for any reason.

The best part about this year is that it has come with all the same ups and downs that every other year has produced. All the classics, girl troubles, financial troubles, unlocking new guitar hero songs, travel, eating biscuits, parties, irrational decisions to get a piercings and such, drinking, work, a rapid decline in personal health and physical fitness, bills, McDonald's, you name it. But I haven't seen any negatives at all; I am quite comfortable just letting shit go. A straight up, stellar year. Also, there were a few ridiculous food metaphors in here. Good times.
