A Look Back at 2010

A look back at 2010 in the G-house.

• The year started with an awesome New Years house party that we hosted. There was a lot of family, booze, and good times minus the scare that the Mr. had alcohol poisoning after I found him lying on the shower floor with the water running. Rookie.
• Good times quickly turned to shitty stress when the Nazi’s at CARB came down harsh with their new laws and regulations that required us to purchase a new truck. Only to end 2010 with news of delays on the laws and hearing that implementation will be halted until 2015. Thank you, you blood sucking bastards for the needless $1,100 monthly payment, oh and the $1,000 fine you issued us that you are no longer implementing. Thank you for not having a clue what the fuck you are talking about and bending me over to take it in the ass anyway and not so much as buying me a single fucking drink. I hope you die. No really I. HOPE. YOU. DIE. By the way I think Global Warming is a cult. [Gasp]
• The truck we did purchase has been a shit hole. Think lawsuit. Again, fuck you CARB.
• I missed The Ellen show, AGAIN! Dammit one day I will use the tickets I get instead of having to give them away to some stranger to use. I heart Ellen.
• The teenager passed the CAHSEE on his first try his sophomore year. That was awesomeness and one less thing for me to worry about.
• The teenager got his driver’s permit and gave me one major thing to worry about.
• I saw The Commodores minus Lionel but eh it was still a good time.
• Spring break was relaxing at the beach. That was much needed.
• My sister and goddaughter were out in the spring and that was joy beyond joy.
• I tried to lose weight again for the summer.  Did you see any skinny pics of me showing my ass? No? Well that’s because it is still chubby and don’t nobody wanna see that shit. I’ve decided for 2011 I will make a resolution to be fat, gain 20lbs., drink more, and be far less active. My hope is the shit will work in reverse. Fuck you skinny active bitches.
• This year’s Mother’s Day Tea was at the beach and was a very blessed time. Already looking forward to the 2011 tea.
• A trip to Sea World was somewhere in there.
• I saw The Eagles in May and Oh. My. Gawd. Fucking awesome show. I seriously contemplated throwing my giant big girl chonies at the stage.
• We had a baby shower for my brother and his wife and welcomed a new addition to the family in June, Miss Violet. The limbs from my mom’s family tree just keep on sprouting. Damn Mexicans.
• I lost a very good boss due to transfer/movement. That was really hard. I really do miss him. He is a great boss, and a great man.
• Summer was short and good. No complaint other than it was too short.
• Started the new school year with a new principal [boss].
• The summer brought me two magnificent things: Mad Men and Sons of Anarchy. Yes, I am easily pleased.
• NG turned 10 and I am still in awe that an entire decade has passed since I was pregnant and gave birth to her. A decade. Time is going by to fast.
• We had death hit our household, which of course sucks ass beyond ass. We lost Grammy this year [the Mr.’s grandmother]. An awesome woman and it was such a hit to our hearts. Fuck you death. We also lost my uncle [my dad’s brother]. Again fuck you death.
• Soccer season for N started and should be done by now. Damn those kids for making it to playoffs. We will start 2011 back at practice.
• I survived Justin Bieber. Liquor free I might add.
• The teenager wanted to change schools and we went ahead and allowed him too. His past report card was improved. He still has a ways to go but things are looking up.
• My sister, her husband, and my goddaughter were back out here in Cali for my goddaughter’s first birthday. They stood with me for a whole two weeks and that was seriously one of the best things in 2010. That little girl is absolute bliss. Oh and my sister too.
• Cali elected another asshat for governor. I’m scuurrrrred. Very scured.
• We had to move. Fuck.
• We moved and are settled. Good.
• The teenager turned 17. SEVENTEEN! He is a little man. Well not little he is 6’2”, but still my little man. It is weird. And again time is going by to fast.
• Santa died.
• Thanksgiving and Christmas were good. Seriously I have no complaints and feel very blessed.

So that was 2010. It didn’t completely suck but it did a lot. I feel very tired of the change and chaos that the last four years have been. Since the decade is over I would really love it 2011 if you could bring some stability, a little prosperity, and I’d settle for a 20lb weight loss instead of the 50 I could really use. I am hoping.

See you next year bitches.
