Not a bad run.
It feels like a lot has happened over the past year, but looking back, not a whole lot has changed. I'm still dealing with the same problems, living in the same area, working the same job.. but you know what? Other than the constant tiredness I seem to be suffering from, I feel good. I remember where I was a year ago, and whether I appear better off or worse to the rest of the world, I feel better about myself.
One year ago, this blog was started by a person that had almost given up, someone that was grasping for a bit more attention. I still face the depression occassionally, but it doesn't have the hold that it used to, and the worst I've had to face lately I've been able to just sleep off.. I couldn't do that before.
Those of you that have stuck by, read what I consider to be nonsense, commented on ideas that I've had (whether they were plausible or "off the wall"), or have contributed in any other way.. thank you. Thank you for making this blog (with all of it's 2 readers :P) what it is today, and for helping to make me what I am today.
There's no telling what the next year will bring, but I'm optimistic.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a candle to blow out, and a wish to make.
