2007 was boring. Really boring. There was a 10,000 mile book tour, a handful of road races, in and out of the car, falling in love with Kerouac and Vonnegut, approximately $1,050 in parking tickets, drinks in Monte Carlo and the train jumping debacle, two car accidents, losing mucho dinero in Vegas to those impossible black jack tables at the Venetian, running with the Elvises, the discovery of Blue Bucks, St. Ex, and good people and bottles at Schneiders, attending the debut of the worst Broadway musical, ever, that whole restaurant incident, and a stint as an attorney somewhere in between. Perhaps 2008 will actually have something exciting happen in it.
So for those of you that added spice to my blogosphere life, bless you. Linda, you are wonderfully insightful and need to pass me the Chianti. Jarod, thank you for the wit; now convert to a good Southerner. Michael, I’m flattered you think my blog is readable, but admittedly questioning your insanity. Will Write for Chocolate. Your name says it all, you endearingly hysterical woman. Listen Missy, Towwas, Avacado In Paradise (Did you know Capote called his attorney “avocado”?), you are wonderful people. Whisky Prajer, your 2007 Table Scraps was ingenius. And to all of you other gentle readers that have shown me through google analytics that you love when I get kicked out of restaurants, comment on Adam Levine’s sexiness, or try to die by running, thank you. I’ve learned my lesson. Now ALL I’ll write about will be literary events.
And Jerry Brito, thank you for making this website possible.

it reads like VH1’s Worst Year Ever. *sigh*
I’m so jealous. Esp the Elvi. But you know that already.
2007 was a wonderful year all around, wasn’t it? But you know what this means? 2008 will just have to be even better. Happy New Year to you, too, Ms. M.
