1) Meeting my girlfriend Ellie and having a generally awesome time for 8 months and counting.
Making a load of good new friends from my other forum.
Moving into my flat with my mate of 17 years.
Getting a pay rise at work to enable me to do the above, buy plenty of CDs, see lots of gigs, and not worry about spending too much.
Seeing loads of great stand-up comedy, including Noel Fielding, Sean Cullen, Gary Le Strange.
Discovering the series 'Firefly'.
Discovering some new artists and getting into some older ones including Echaskech, Sigur Ros, Jose Gonzalez, and Tunng.
2) Nothing really, which I am very glad for.
3) Definitely 'Sideways' - the funniest, cleverest most moving film I'd seen at the cinema for a good while. 'Batman Begins' deserves special mention for being the best action film in a long time, and also the best DVD release I've bought recently. 'Serenity' was also brilliant, and showed George Lucas what real science fiction should be like.
4) My first Big Chill was an excellent one. I saw some brilliant bands, soaked up the amazing atmosphere, and did some naughty stuff in a sheep field.
I should also mention 'The Egg' at Cargo last month - a fun-filled and brilliant gig.
5) Not sure about my favourite word. Maybe 'tits'.
6) Revenge of the Shit. I mean Sith. No actually, I really mean Shit.
