A place of my own and a healthier savings account.
What date from 2005 will remain etched in your memory and why?
Can't remember the exact date, however the day I finally broke up with Chris. I've never felt so sad and happy at the same time. Moving on and leaving my past behind... for the better.
March 14 2005 - the NIGHTWISH concert, my first live rock concert ever! Followed by an incredibly erotic dream starring Nathan/Fungus (I'm not sure... only remember the guy's bodyshapy and it was kinda like both of them tallish and kinda beefy.)

Getting a job, and falling in love with my darling Fungus!
What was your biggest failure?
Losing the job at the telemarketing place.
Did you suffer illness or injury?
Legbruise!!! Otherwise no major illnesses, just a random OMG??? Pregnant??? week.

Ryan's fantastic Christmas present, a dragon bottle holder (VERY goth) the look on his face when it opened it was priceless.

Rent, and travel to/from work.
What did you get really, really, really excited about?
The new job, realising... after fighting with my feelings for Ryan that I could actually be with him.
