went to physical therapy
went to the gym and lifted weights (unrelated to the physical therapy)
took my husband to the er

2. Did you keep your New Years’ resolutions and will you make more for next year? i don't like to make those so probably not. and also no.
3. Did anyone close to you give birth? no
4. Did anyone close to you die? jon's aunt passed away, which was very sad and sudden. jimmy buffett also died. not close to me but a significant loss.
5. What countries did you visit? ireland! not a country but we visited my aunt and uncle in maryland and had a great time!

7. What date from 2023 will remain etched upon your memory, and why? same date as last year's meme, which is june 9. now it is the date where we got married in ireland. :)
8. What was your biggest achievement of the year? working on healing my shoulder pain was pretty significant. also getting 69 bookmarks on a porn-centric fic of mine that's close to my heart. luckily i managed to catch it before it tipped over to 70.
9. What was your biggest failure? quitting going to the gym. i did genuinely enjoy it, but then i got that pinched nerve in my shoulder and the pain was pretty bad. i need to start it up again.
10. Did you suffer illness or injury? yes, the pinched nerve in my shoulder. in ireland, i pinched my sciatic nerve and also nearly passed out from heat at the top of blarney castle. had a bad sinus infection when we came back and couldn't hear out of my ears very well for like a week.

18. What do you wish you’d done more of? talk to people, exercise.
19. What do you wish you’d done less of? ordering door dash. but it's just so easy...

29. What did you want and not get? an interesting slime rancher 2 update. haunted chocolatier (jk concerned ape take your time).
30. What was your favorite film of this year? i saw everything everywhere all at once which was pretty great. i also saw the eras concert, the barbie movie, dungeons & dragons, the newest puss in boots movie. but there was a bit where i just watched a bunch of gay movies and i might have to give it to this english version of brokeback mountain that i enjoyed: god's own country.
31. What did you do on your birthday, and how old were you? i mostly sat around and bought myself presents and it was great. i turned 35.
32. What one thing would have made your year immeasurably more satisfying? feeling like writing more often. <- last year's answer is still true.

40. Quote a song lyric that sums up your year:
Oh, yesterdays are over my shoulder, So I can't look back for too long. There's just too much to see waiting in front of me, and I know that I just can't go wrong with these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes; nothing remains quite the same. With all of our running and all of our cunning, If we couldn't laugh, we would all go insane
- jimmy buffett, "changes in latitude, changes in attitude"

2022 New Year's Meme
every year @arqueete reminds me that we do this survey that went around Livejournal in the 2010s. Anyone is welcome to do the survey!
1. What did you do in 2022 that you’d never done before?
got married
quit a job
started a job as a project manager i guess
went to kansas city, mo
was a conference sponsor on a corporate work trip like, by myself
rode an overnight train! twice!! there and back!
started nail stamping
be a bridesmaid in a wedding
watched @arqueete get married :)
2. Did you keep your New Years’ resolutions and will you make more for next year? idk if i made any but i tend not to enjoy them. if i did make some it would be to use the ring fit that i got for christmas and try to be better about either keeping up with cleaning or being kind to myself when it's not spotless all the time
3. Did anyone close to you give birth? i think no
4. Did anyone close to you die? no. several plants, though, particularly in our 48 hour power outage while we were away during near-zero temperatures. rip to them and my now like 4 others who i'm noticing are showing signs of distress. my poor dracaena fragans tornado has lost so many leaves it looks naked. (though my velvet philodendron looks sadder, tbf.)
5. What countries did you visit? none but i went to kansas city and then wisconsin!
6. What would you like to have in 2023 that you lacked in 2022? more like i want to prevent myself from lacking my teacher friends in 2023. i've done a very bad job of staying in touch in my whirlwind of a fall/winter and i need to get better about texting people and reaching out.
7. What date from 2022 will remain etched upon your memory, and why? june 9 aka 6/9 aka when we were first given that date as a possibility to get married i went lol. and jon was like ?? and then bc i got the joke first he decided that had to be our wedding date.
8. What was your biggest achievement of the year? getting the chutzpah to quit teaching and then getting a new job (and doing well? i think? maybe? i have no metric for success) by using my connections
9. What was your biggest failure? this project at work is going horribly. idk what i can do to help bc i don't code but clearly i should be doing something better. but i suppose that's what learning is for.
10. Did you suffer illness or injury? i did get sick in the summer and then i spent basically the entire fall with incredible pain in my shoulder that i think ultimately was a result of stress. it's slowly getting better now that i'm not constantly traveling.
11. What was the best thing you bought? maybe the nail stamping starter kit from maniology. oh and the juvia's place rainbow palette i got bc it really opened my eyes both to eyeshadow that doesn't fall out all over my face and also pigmented eyeshadow. those beauty vloggers were onto something. this was also the year of me deciding to be into care bears again.
12. Whose behavior merited celebration? @arqueete planned and executed a beautiful wedding :) :) :)
13. Whose behavior made you appalled and depressed? roughly 50% of the population of the united states and their legal machinations
14. Where did most of your money go? probably the wedding, hotels, travel, and door dash.
15. What did you get really, really, really excited about? my wedding but also the OVERNIGHT TRAIN spurring some new vocabulary in my husband's and my lexicon, namely whether or not you're train people and also OPULENCE. (if you get the overnight train on amtrak you get a fancy lounge to sit in at the station. opulence.)
16. What song(s) will always remind you of 2022? the heartstopper soundtrack, i think. there was a lot of other stuff on my spotify list but heartstopper itself is such a big part of this year for me.
17. Compared to this time last year, are you: i. Happier or sadder? happier. ii. Older or wiser? both i think iii. Thinner or fatter? fatter though i also think this should be eliminated. body positivity ok. since quitting teaching i've really been trying to embrace the shape of my body as it is. iv. Richer or poorer? richer.
18. What do you wish you’d done more of? talk to people, exercise.
19. What do you wish you’d done less of? ordering door dash. but it's just so easy...
20. How will you be spending Christmas? we went to jon's family farm and hung out around their outdoor wood burning stove. we got a hotel and i think staying in a hotel when visiting parents is 100% an improvement on the entire situation.
21. How will you be spending New Year’s Eve? we watched glass onion and tried to time it out so that we'd be able to pause it a zillion times to talk and be done by midnight, which we succeeded at. we did also pause the movie a zillion times and i'm very pleased to report we noticed many of the clues that would later be significant (at least the ones that happened on screen).
22. Did you fall in love in 2022? with my hoya krimson queen.
23. How many one-night stands? i was trying to think of something i got into momentarily and both things i thought of occurred at just the wrong time: on dec 30 2021 i apparently bought the outer wilds, and promptly discovered that i hated it. yesterday i saw a torchwood gifset and am now down a rabbit hole of looking up fanfic and audio dramas.
24. What was your favorite TV program? heartstopper, for sure.
25. Do you hate anyone now that you didn’t hate this time last year? i guess the supreme court
26. What was the best book you read? i'm horrible at rememering what i read. i did just finish i'm glad my mom died and it was very good. oh! oh! the dean/cas horse girl au! i read it twice. not exactly back to back but more or less. it's so good.
27. What was your greatest musical discovery? maybe leith ross?
28. What did you want and get? a new job. :)
29. What did you want and not get? continuing the wedding talk is that i discovered a local place that does bouquet preservation and so i dropped it off and we've only just now heard back that the flowers finished drying. the humidity made it take a long time. at this point i can't even remember what we picked out so i suppose that'll be a fun surprise.
30. What was your favorite film of this year? defunctland's video on the disney channel theme counts as a film and i loved the shit out of that. i will also do a shout out to violent night, the first film we saw in theaters since the start of the pandemic. there was one (1) other couple in there.
31. What did you do on your birthday, and how old were you? i was 3......4? and it was a snow day. i sat around and put makeup on and my husband surprised me by walking up to the gas station and getting me champagne to make mimosas.
32. What one thing would have made your year immeasurably more satisfying? feeling like writing more often.
33. How would you describe your personal fashion concept in 2022? i decided to start trying to embrace my body the way that my mom certainly did and does not embrace hers now (and we essentially have the same body type except i look more like how she feared looking like). so it's a lot to unpack! but i started wearing cropped things, not hiding in big clothing. i also played around with bold colorful eye makeup. now that i'm not a teacher i feel like i can play around a lot more without fearing running into a student.
34. What kept you sane? quitting teaching, but also embracing my rotating wheel of hobby interests. i try to pay attention to when i need to do something in a physical space vs more mental stimulation.
35. Which celebrity/public figure did you fancy the most? bi misha collins for 48 hours.
36. What political issue stirred you the most? roe v wade and its implications are nightmare inducing. i also want my student loan forgiveness and i've lost hope that it will happen.
37. Who did you miss? my teacher friends.
38. Who was the best new person you met? i really enjoy my one coworker who i spend most of the day talking to.
39. Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2022: if it sucks hit da bricks
40. Quote a song lyric that sums up your year:
the book of love is long and boring and written very long ago it's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes and things we're all too young to know but i, i love it when you give me things and you, you ought to give me wedding rings

3, 12?
3. What were your top five books of the year?
Hmm. Always a hard question - grading this on a basis of both liking them in the moment and coming back to think about em after the fact.
Weavers, Scribes & Kings by Amanda Podany
Last Exit by Max Gladstone
Giovanni's Room by James Baldwin
Some Desperate Glory by Emily Tesh
A Half-Built Garden by Ruthanna Emrys
12. Any books that disappointed you?
Many! At the moment Saint Death's Daughter is probably the most sailent, just because I'm trying to write the review for it.
