Well, that's a considerable sigh of relief.

Which, in some ways is very silly. I can't exactly say "ok the badness will stop here" because an arbitrary date has been passed. It's even sillier when I don't even CELEBRATE New Year in January. My particular hodge-podge paganism a la me (it's not making it up as you go along if you call it a religion, believe it and can chatter in a slightly mystical way about it) celebrates New Year on Samhain - but hells when 90% of the world says it's new year (and even those who say it isn't maintain the same calendar for professional reasons at least) then it's going to stick.

Anyway, this is a rambly way of saying 2008 was a really really crappy year. From my family being all rocky with the death of several relatives, Nana going officially off her rocker, my brother still recovering from the aftermath of the bitch queen, my general health moans (pneumonai. Seriously not right) and the general chaos at work followed by a stonking great credit crunch and regularly sprinkled with lots of things to make me pissed off... well 2008 will not be missed.

2009? You are ordered not to suck. Seriously. Or I'm totally going to rip all the pages our the calendar early and call it 2010. At least then I get to say "Twenty-ten" and leave this damned awakward single-figure year problem we're having now. And then everyone will think I'm crazy and I'll probably be locked in a looney bin. Do you want that on your conscience 2009? Do you? No, I thought not. So be a good year and I'll give you a cookie.

2009 - officially under orders not to suck.

yeah. i acknowledge the arbitrary date silliness, and the spiritual vs. calendar new year situation, and i still hope that having to go out and buy a new calendar has greater significance that just...that. please do not suck, 2009.
