2009

fuck, I just realized that I *still* don't have any pictures of myself ever wearing those fun 200_ new year's glasses with the 00s for the eyes, and 2008 was my next-to-last chance! the proportion of 'bitter regret' in that lingering complex post-new year emotional mix has just increased by at least 20%. friends, PLEASE help me to not repeat this tragic oversight for the third year in a row next year!

in fact, in order to help me help myself, I have just created a future-dated post as a reminder. which reminds me, I should probably start learning to use my Google calendar.

Surely there will be 2O1O glasses.

I thought of that... but will they be the same? won't the '1' get kind of squished in-between the 0s? maybe I'm just imagining them wrong but it seems like a potential 2010 design just wouldn't have the same satisfying sense of balance, the sense that you're kind of 'in the middle' with the zeros - like, wouldn't your head feel a little lopsided?

btw thanks for porting over, carl, good to see you! afaik I don't think I know you personally? which makes you unique among recent regular commenters - glad you're still tuning in!

Indeed we're not acquainted; I stumbled upon your "What a Fool Believes" post and have been a devoted reader ever since.
