welp, i was a lot more social than in the past few years, made a lot of new friends. basically fell in love with a QT 3.14 friend of mine by which time i had already hardcore friendzoned myself (told her she was like my sister and she said i was like her brother) almost fucked that whole friendship up over it but recovered nicely...
Lost a job opportunity in a factory that was close and paid very well compared to what i was used to, full benefits, around 20 an hour, everything
out of that i got offered a job by a buddy that pays better than that but if you aren't careful you could get cancer if you slip up in safety protocols and whatnot, due to the nature of the material we'd be handling. That job won't start until April so I have some time to think about it.
overall a much better year than the last handful. oh and i got clean and quit smoking, so theres that too. yay.
