So it's a new year, huh, folks? Funny how fast that happened, isn't it?
I get very contemplative and analytical around this time every year, much like many people do. And I've always thought that keeping one of those "one line a day, every day of the year" kind of journals would be so cool and manageable (and perfect to read on December 31st!), yet I've never been able to get one going.
But then I realized, "hey, I do kinda keep a one or two line a day public journal -- Twitter!" So I spent some time combing through the good ol' archives from 2010 and picked a few of the tweets from each month that best encapsulated my experiences to bring to you: The 2010 Twitter Retrospective!

January:
14 - Gah, I cry every time I write a wedding recap, watch the wedding video, or listen to music from our ceremony. I am suuuch a sap.
27 - Very proud that my little fledgling businesses have inspired one of my friends to create his own -- stick it to the man, my friends!
30 - Just rocked The Gershwin. Hope it's not the last time The Gershwin and I meet.
February:
15 - Spending the afternoon crafting up a storm and re-vamping monologues, while surrounded by snoozing puppies. This is the good life.

3 - Rocked those webisode sides. Just discovering that I can be really funny, and it sure is a whole lot of fun to do!
15 - One thing I'm not good at? Allowing myself to take a break and relax. It's hard when you run your own businesses!
30 - Baked garlic french fries, burgers grilled on the balcony, homegrown lettuce, homemade bread...quite the lovely "cookout" for two :)
June:
1 - Even if it is a slightly dirty NYC beach, I still think it's pretty incredible that we started in Midtown and took the subway to relaxation!

28 - My father-in-law called me tonight just to say that he had seen my new headshots on facebook and that they were gorgeous. I have the best family

December:
3 - Just back from serving 300+ people dinner at Gay Men's Health Crisis. Feel tired, & good about helping, but mostly like I have to do more.
7 - WOAH. Got an #audition notification from NYCastings & a Cmail from @ActorsAccess at the exact same time. The universe has circled around.
18 - Wrapping, cooking, cleaning, laundry, packing, washing my yorkie...all in preparation to leave tomorrow for the holidays!
From reading through all of these tweets, we sure sound like we were busy this year! I'm tired just reading all of it.
What tweets would best sum up your year?
