It makes you cough and wheeze and will likely reduce your lifespan over time. Still, you’ve acquired a taste for it and appreciate the short breaks you take from work for it.
We’re at the end of another year and it’s time to celebrate the good, bad and terrible content that we all spent more time than we'd like to admit reading on this amateur blog in 2008.
This year we shared a number of important events together, including: girlfriending Amanda, focuspoint tshirt drives, tattoos, Scott’s wedding, crappy coverage of a historical election, food porn, another backpacking trip in Europe (with Wesley), the Sex and the City stunt and the start of grad school.
T'was another good year. Let’s look at the highlights!
