Time flying like a banana

“Mate, it’s almost Christmas soon.”

Shit.

There goes another year. It’s October again, all of a sudden, and I’m just wondering what happened to the months Feb – Sep inclusive. 2007, which feels like I’ve only just gotten used to writing, is about to disappear – a couple of months to go yet, sure but in the context of the year it’s nearly over! What on earth did I get up to this year?

Oh, apart from the whole move-to-another-country thing. I mean, that practically fell into my lap. Sure, the process started in February… didn’t get over here til June… had a little side-trip to Singapore… Oh, the parents moved up early in the year, and my sister moved to Adelaide, but that’s not really me…

Every day ticks over so quickly, and almost sneakily there’s a pile of them marked “2007: expired” behind me. New Years Resolutions? pfft, I think I thought about them in May sometime.

Photographic evidence of the year doesn’t suggest much, either. All I can really tally up is that 2007 was – is – a big year for my liver. I’ve been so caught up in the day to day at work, I think I’ve forgotten entirely the longer-term picture.

Where did your 2007 go? What do you have to frantically cram in to the last couple of months to make it feel worthwhile?

  1. dude, it’s still october!

    you think about years in interesting ways… maybe I should try to find something worthwhile too.

  2. It’s still October, but the rest of my year is – for all practical purposes – locked in, so it feels like from here to the end is just coasting. Maybe it’s just me railing at the regularity of work :)

  3. I know what you mean man. This whole year has been Falcon, Falcon, Falcon, meeting, Falcon, Falcon, shit sales, Mondeo…

    At least we moved into a brand spanking new building! It’s actually got windows…
