2008: a fond farewell

Megan and I will miss 2008. It was a year full of great stuff. 2009 has a lot to live up to, and starting in a recession is not the foot you should lead with. So to celebrate 2008, here's a short song/peom I wrote just now from the depths of my heart:

2008, you were great.
I can't think of one thing about you I hate
Obama was elected
Our dues were collected
And we moved back to the United States

so until the NEXT 2008... farewell two-zero-zero-eight, my friend, fare well.

Here's a haiku I wrote about 2009:

New year brings much light
We celebrate change and hope
Beware the robots

What happened? The last time you posted, Obama was still in-waiting.

It's time to dust off those cables and jump start this biatch. You have things to talk about again, right?
