Poll: Year End

I've seen lots of people doing year-end wrap-ups, but, well, I don't really have a lot to wrap up. You all know how my year went. Instead, I thought I'd ask you: how was your year? Are you happy, baby? (I'm also curious because a lot of people seem to have had absolutely terrible 2007s; I'm wondering if it was just the Cursed Year or what.)

And the question at the end is a very important one. Best Beloved and I were talking about that story, and we totally disagreed about what happened. I'd like to be proved right by majority rule, please. Voting is key.

Clearly the story leans towards the tiger explanation. I think the author assumes you will be geared so strongly towards the 'must save the lover!' explanation that they're compensating. Or they just wrote it unevenly.

RL is too complicated to explain, but fannishly it was both awesome and not awesome. I moved into bandom and it's an incredibly fun fandom, but I also seem to have turned into a lurker and it kind of sucks.
