The high points of my year, while there were some lousy lows, this year I: got my COVID vaccine, ditched a toxic therapist, got a new job as a research aide at the Kansas University Center on Developmental Disabilities, ended up having my apartment to myself and my cat, finished several short stories and the first draft of a novella minus a title and an author's note, started on a novel that I have made a plan to finish by next year, got my COVID booster and flu shot, asked a person out for the first time in two years, even though I got rejected, and got involved with An Evening with the Rents to raise money for Camp Encourage that serves autistic people ages 8-18. My New Year's Resolution: continue to acclimate to my new job, find an outlet for several of my short stories, find a way to publish my novella, finish my novel, spend time with the people I care about most, let my friends (at least the ones I see in real life) in on parts of my life that I haven't let them in on before, limit my activities outside of work and other obligations more when it is good and conceivable, and check my outline on the things that are my day-to-day life.
