It’s the last day of 2006 and I can’t help but feel a bit melancholy. I always do. At least this year I’m going out with a bunch of friends and will hopefully have a great time. But, before I start getting ready (we’re going for an early dinner so I have to drop-dead gorgeous by 6 PM) I wanted to say a few things about this year.
- I’m thankful for having the opportunity to meet (albeit virtually, although I have met some of you personally) all of you. I never thought anyone would read this blog and now I couldn’t go on if you all didn’t read this. I love you guys. I really do. Your comments, emails, support, and sense of humor has meant the world to me. I’m feeling very loving right now, so I’ll even tell the lurkers that I love them too. Maybe you all should comment every now and then, huh? That would be so nice.
- I have surprised myself with Coquettishly in a way I can’t really describe. I’m proud of that blog and I’m hoping that in the coming year the blog will become a respected and fun resource for people.
- I’ve been through a bunch of things this year. Heartbreak. Stalking. Allergic Reactions. Family issues. Coworkers annoying the shit out of me (wait, sometimes that’s really funny so I won’t complain too much). I think that all of these things make me stronger, better, and more prepared for whatever bullshit life throws at me. At least a have a story to tell. At least I know something about life. At least I can recognize goodness when I see it. I always try to live my life with that mindset. This coming year will be better. I know it.
- I found Stella Marie this year and I can’t imagine my life without the little hairball. I’ve love to have a dog, but my apartment is too small. I think I’ll adopt another cat this year. Stella needs company.
- I’ve been in my current job for a year and I love it. Even as busy and hectic as it can be, I still love it.
That’s all I can think of right now. I’m not doing any resolutions this year, cause I can’t keep them. So, I’m going to try and find happiness in what I have and who I am, instead of looking for something else always. I will be healthier and stronger this year. I will try to be a better friend to the people who matter to me, and that includes some of you reading this post.
And now to the important part….my birthday is in 21 days. January 21. I’m going to be 32….GASP!!! I think I’m better now than I’ve ever been, so I don’t want to hear anything about being old. I can still rock it. I want to do something fun this year (like get laid long and hard, hee hee). I’m open to all ideas about what I should do.
Time for more mushiness….thank you all for being so great. I love you and I hope that this new year will bring you all happiness, love, comfort, and fortune. May all of your wishes come true.
A big, wet, long smooch from me.
Happy New Year to you too, Debbie! Yes, get a friend for Stella. It’s one of the best things we did this year–got a little friend for our kitty.
Happy New Year! May all of your passions be fulfilled this year… We love you too!
32 ain’t so bad! I know this man!
Happy New Year to you. I hope this year means that we get to hang out!
Much love to you (and sex).
Happy New Year!
My resolution this year is to read 50 books in 2007. That will be harder than it sounds because I’m always so freaking busy but I really want to get back into reading and stop watching so much crap on TV.
I’ll always like 2006 because it is the year I got addicted to blogs. I had heard of them of course but I thought they were nothing but portals to political bile. I didn’t realize they also contained coolness.
the feeling is mutual. I really enjoy reading your blog. I’m glad I found it/you.
Hey Deb, isn’t mushiness great? Happy New Year Sweetie. Love you too, Dan
Happy New Year, Debbie.
Happy New Year!
I wish you all the happiness and sex you can handle in the new year.
32 is nothin’. I’m 34, I mean um 29 for the 5th year in a row.
yes indeed and happy new year of course! 32 is nuttin as noted..i’ll be 37 in July
Well I’m thankful I found your blog(s) this year because you are a fantastic read. Here’s to a great 2007.

Happy New Year! Here’s too all us women who survived “heartbreak, stalking and allergic reactions”. I feel better knowing I’m not the only one that this-shit-only-happens-to-me happens to!
Deb, you’re the bee’s knees! I’m glad to (virtually, so far) know you.
Have a slammin New Year, babe!
I saw a Mullet two days ago. I thought it was smoking as I saw smoke coming out of it. But there was a lady under it. She was old. I would say over 50. I was scared. I was in a part of town that was far from New York City. I was in Joshua Tree, CA. Dessert city. You get lost there at night, don’t expect to get out alive. No one is around, unless you’re in that part where it’s just a street going up that way and down that way. Did I mention how scared I was of her mullet? Yes. Scared I was. Scared I still am. Which brings me to another story of my friend who married her boyfriend in 96 with a mullet. Yes, she married a mullet man and 4 years later he cut it off and women everywhere ran to see him. He was on exhibit for a while. There was such a big difference from his 80’s mullet hair doo to the 90’s look. He was now hot and I was eying him down like water on a hot day in a dessert.
Mullets…Mullets scare me.
You know……Mullets scare me so dam much that I’m in the wrong post!!!!
