2019 – A Few Thoughts On…

Year End Music Countdowns #18: 2019

Ok here it is

2018

I emerged from 2017 bloodied and on trembling legs, but victorious. Life scowled, angry that I’d survived all the daggers it had buried into in my side. That scowl slowly curled into a malicious smile as it realized exactly what it could do to win, and stepped back into a dark corner, as if in acquiescence.

2017

I spent the first hour of 2017 cleaning my dog’s projectile diarrhea off the wall, which basically set the tone for the entire year because 2017 ended up being my annus horribilis.

(cue Beavis and Butthead laugh)

2016

I’ve always believed that I’m prescient. I know what’s coming down the pike, even if I don’t necessarily know exactly when or the future’s finer details. All I gotta do is imagine the least desirable outcome in any given scenario 🙂

2015

Over the course of these retrospectives I’ve compared my life to a movie series a few times, and I’m gonna use that analogy again here: 2015 was a straight-up reboot of 2011. A low-stress period of peace and regrowth with no unwelcome surprises. I loved it. I love love love love love loved it.
