As I wrote before, I was robbed in Granada. And this weekend, just as I was about to go to the airport to return to NYC, I left my wallet at the gas station where I'd refueled my rental car. When my parents, who were nearby, went to look for it -- it was gone (and later, I found out someone tried to charge something to my credit card). And getting through airport security, while not impossible, isn't pleasant when you have no identification whatsoever.
So, yeah, it's been that kind of year. But if this whole karma thing works, that must mean 2010 will be fucking amazing, right?
Right?
But while 2009 has been quite the roller coaster ride, it's been fun. Sure, I've experienced mishaps, nursed a wounded heart on a few occasions, endured professional setbacks, and I didn't do nearly all the things I wanted to do. And I often felt a little lost, and that I was moving in the opposite direction as my peers and friends. But I lived, I learned. And I am thankful for that.
- I've been to eight of the 38 restaurants on Eater's Must Eat List, and my first 2010 resolution is to eat at eight more.
- OK, winter is my least favorite season and I pretty much dread the whole thing, but I am sort of looking forward to the first snow. A little.
- I'm also looking forward to getting a real Christmas tree, one that isn't two feet tall and potted. I love love love that pine-y smell. Can't be beat.
Hmm. I've eaten at 16. Not quite as many as I was hoping, but not too bad...
