2024 wasn’t really a great year for me, but it’s not all that bad either. Here’s a rundown of everything that transpired. Thoughts and reflections might come in a future changelog:
JAN: Had my wisdom teeth taken out. Was told the future offer of managing the second branch of the pet store I was working at wasn’t happening anymore.
FEB: U got laid off from work. I was devastated, he was relieved. Scrambled to apply for a new full-time job.
MAR: Got diagnosed with diabetes. First interview for what would eventually be my new job.
APR: Signed the offer for my new job. Visited Montreal for the first time.
MAY: Rushed dog to the emergency vet after a fight broke out in the park. Hundreds of down the drain.
JUN: Attended Pride with U. Made a mental note to join the parade next year. Celebrated dog’s 7th birthday.
JUL: Spent birthday week in a tiny house. Fantasies fulfilled 😝
AUG: Bought our first car here. Started making friendship bracelets.
SEP: Last-minute beach-hopping before fall. Crossed the border by car for the first time. Got new high-tech glasses.
OCT: Hiked to see fall foliage all around the province. Attended a Halloweenie event. Celebrated dog’s 12th birthday.
NOV: Eras Tour stop in my city. Attended our first tech conference here. First snowfall of the season.
DEC: The Eras Tour ends. 😭 Caught up with an old friend. Launched my first big project at work. Made new friends and expanded our network. U finally got a new job 🥹
