Another chapter

I have a theory that since I went into 2008 with such high hopes, but then came out of it worse than when the year began, that now the universe owes me one good year. And since I'm going into 2009 with a bit of a rough patch to work through, I hope that means that pretty soon things will turn around and I'll end the year the way I should have ended last year...with a smile on my face.
