2005 in summary...

here's a list of events that i blogged about in 2005. not all of this
information is recap-worthy now, nor was it particularly blog-worthy then,
but it is what it is. it's a quick, high-level glimpse of what went down with
me in 05. if i forgot to mention something important, say, your birthday, it
was a complete oversight on my part and is not to be taken as a diss. without
further ado:
