When I got home from work yesterday, Ash decided that we needed to go out for Mexican, which was fine by me because I spent most of the ride home worrying about what on earth I was going to make for dinner. Well, that and the fact that my kid had a very stinky diaper. (I’m glad that for the most part, he does that at daycare and they get to deal with clean-up).

So yes, we went for Mexican and then decided to stop by Toys R Us, to look at possible new toys for the boy, ones he could bang on, since thats his new favorite activity. But we ended up buying the new Mario Kart for Wii instead. Definitely worth it because it’s awesome. The wheel it comes with is a big ol’ waste of time but if you use the controller and the nunchuck, it’s a lot easier. In fact, I did very well on the first couple levels. But then we had to break for a bit so Ash could work out and I needed to do some organizing. On our server, we have all of our pictures organized by year. We were looking through them the other night and, somehow, there wasn’t a 2004 file. Er, uh, yeah that’s my fault. When we moved from the Townhouse into our current house, I was the one who dumped all the pictures I had taken in 2004 into one big file. But I never managed to get them transferred over.

Once I got them up and filed and foldered Ash said, “Well, it’s nice to have that time in our lives back.” And he’s right; I hadn’t looked at that stuff in a while. Geez, 4 years ago! In that year we: moved out of Woodgate, I started teaching, we moved into the townhouse, bought Todd, bought a 2000 dollar washer/dryer, broke up, got back together, went to Ohio and saw snow, and got engaged. Pretty crazy. Years always seem so much bigger when you list the accomplishments, don’t they?

It’s like the year (2005) when I wrote my thesis and we moved into our house and I planned a wedding, all at once. It was sort of a whirlwind of craziness. So tell me, what year did you do the most in – so far – and does it seem really far away or just like yesterday?
