2009: welcome to perfection
It seems that I missed the "Previous Year Recap' boat but it is a ride that I really want to take, so here is my top 5, in no particular order (NPO, for all you new comers).
Hanging out with Mark
Many mannyyyy late nights were spent doing homework (or playing Zelda) at my house with Mark. He stayed at my house about 65% of the week for a few months because his house got so cold during the winter. During that time, we would just stay up getting things done until 6 in the morning, then he would go to work and I would go to sleep. Our lives were on repeat and it was awesome, like having a roommate.
I remember one early morning in particular... We had been up the whole night because we were waiting for the refrigerator repair man to come at 9 in the morning. I was doing a freelance project and he was doing a project for his programming class (in between reading a book written by a man who didn't exist, I think.) and I ate a lot of spaghetti. Cool story.
San Francisco with Annie
The beginning of January brought an amazing trip to San Francisco with Annie and her buddy Juan. It is sad but I am a bit to lazy to type out all the great things about the trip, so here is a picture or two:
Trashing San Francisco with Mark & Joe
Hell yeah. We had epic days in SF where things happened that I still find hard to believe, like meeting Leah Culver. Wtf.
Graduating (but not the physical act of graduating)
I tend to forget that I am out of school.... Although, whenever I do remember, it is super crazy. But I must say that the actual day of my graduation was one of the worst days of the year. Those of you who were there remember how much I wanted the day to end (and it did a few times at dinner and while driving). ANYWAYS, thank you all once again for being there. And bSturd for being there all day, along with Annie. Along with Mark and Joe who lent me a computer and a pair of headphones (respectively).
Annie's Birthday
This day is one of the best and one of the most miserable days of the year, by far. Jimmy Eat World, iSoda, Disneyland, Peeing, m83 and more! Reeecaapppp.
ANYWAYS, 5 is a very low number, I could have possibly gone on forever. You know...
What was everyone else's favorite mems of 2009?

Oh and Radiohead was my 26th most played artist in 2009, behind such great acts like Saves the Day(#24) and Dashboard (#4), sorry Thom.probably full of heroin needles, pee, a piece of mark's surfboard and used condoms.

o I guess your lack of Radiohead listening balances out when Radiohead was the only thing you would listen to, at least saves the day was a bit higher.
o Your picture down at the embarcadero is amazing, much better than the one I took the other day.
o 2009 in general, was a great year, especially San Francisco, and My birthday. Which, I am still amazed that you were able to do all the birthday events on such little sleep.
