1 year anniversary

One year ago today I began this blog as a way to document what I thought was sure to be a very monumental & historic year. At the time I knew the primaries were heating up & were bound to lead to an even more interesting presidential race. (boy, did that ever turn out to be true) I wanted to document that history in a personal way. I also wanted to incorporate something of a personal creed into the process. That being, to "try to learn something new every day", or in this case to post something new everyday. On average I was able to do just that. True there was a period in Nov & Dec where, for personal reasons, I wasn’t able to post much at all. However, multiple posts at other times during the year more than made up for this period of silence.

So, one year ago today I began this blog to document 'a year'. Little did I know at the time that 2008 would turn out to be not only an exceptionally interesting year historically, but also, personally the most significant year of my life. I can’t see how 2009 could possibly top it, but as my mom would say, I’ve probably just put the 'Hungarian curse' on it, so I guess we’ll just have to wait & see…
