I hate new years.
it always feels so artificial to me. I don't think of my life as starting and stopping with such regularity. the idea of one part of my life being over and another beginning just because of the calendar just doesn't sit well with me. my life is continuous, and I treat it as such. if anything, I will break it into partitions of my own choosing, usually separated by major events. I could also think of my life as a graph, with ups and downs, and I could zoom backwards until small ups and downs looked insignificant and only major changes could be seen. then I could look for the points where my lifeline crossed over the neutral point and partition it off that way.
I am definitely on the negative side now. but, to be honest, I am really not sure when it crossed over.

in other news, the new *** album is done with the recording phase. now it just has to be mixed and then all the world can bask in the glory.
