2007: A catalogue of events

Posted on December 28, 2007 by Megan

Life in 2007 was pretty damned interesting, and I daresay a little less stressful than 2006. The most notable events (in no particular order) were:

Winning a spot on the national bargaining team for my union.
Taking a trip to Anza Borego and the Salton Sea.
Traveling to Eugene for Darren and Chelsea’s hearings.
Experiencing a car break down and a car fire during said trip to Eugene and back.
Taking a ton of trips to Ottawa, and around BC for union and work.
Getting a new job with a whole new set of responsibilities.
Getting re-elected to several union positions.
Visiting a federal correctional institution in the US for the first time.
Going to Wild Earth.
Taking a number of photographs I am really pleased with.
Meeting Michael who tinkered with my world view.
Having a one month period of depression that was really intense – but working my way out of it just the same.
Talking to lots of lawyers.
Attending many parties at Kyla’s.
Throwing a baby shower for Anna and celebrating Cai’s birth.
Talking to Chelsea by phone for the first time since she was arrested in 2005. Meeting her family.
Winning a contest for a poem.
Writing a lot and realizing I can call myself a writer now.
Reconnecting with a bunch of people Facebook.
Dating a schwack of people.
Meeting Brian and no longer dating a schwack of people (just one who makes me happy – much easier).
