2009 Bluesy Start

I slept through the ringing of the new year.
But many were more energetic and happy for 2009. I was just sleepy.

There is a new US President, talks of stimulus packages, and a new tax season! Oh fun!

I have been pessimistic and feeling down through the holidays and didn't feel like blogging much. I am still feeling somewhat the same... a little trepid about the future as I watch my savings drop bit by bit, and as I wonder what will still be affordable for us, middle class folks.

I think things will turn around, but patience and some optimism is required.

I am hoping to make self-improvements for myself... these aren't resolutions, but goals for this year and years to come. I feel that I have grown more realistic about life... or is it pessimistic? In any case, this feeling of reality hitting is making me a bit depressed and irritable.

I may eventually drop this blog and turn it into a creative project... we will see though. For now it will remain my sounding board.

Hey WGBC I deleted your comment because I don't want the world to know about my future economic plans etc.

But in response to your comments, I'm not blue about anything in particular. I've just come to the conclusion that the world sucks in general, and no amount of "hope" or "change" will change human nature's cycle of complaints, destruction etc..

sorry about that. wasnt really thinking about the fact you were probably being vague for a reason. didnt mean to create any waves. as for your final comment im a little cynical too cuz greed will rule all sadly. but we can personally do our parts and feel good about ourselves and that has to be enough or it could consume us. wgbc is out and again apologizes.
