[x] All of a sudden, I started thinking about this post, and after about two seconds worth of hunting, I found it in the archives. I do have to add 2010 to this, though. 2010 was, overall, a fantastic year--the best way I could've hoped to end a decade of so many trials and tribulations--so much heartbreak but so much joy. It was a great way to round off ten years, and I have faith that the next ten will be even more amazing than the last (if that's even possible--the joys from the last decade still burn so brightly). Every year, I email out a list of my twenty favorite songs (ala YouTube vids), so when I get around to it, I'll copy the list here for the sake of posterity. Yep, it was a great year. And a great cap to the decade. I have so much hope and love for the future...
