Honestly, 2007 was a bit of a blur for me. In a lot of ways it was my settling in year. I didn’t mention it before, but at the end of 2005 Cobb County promoted me for the second time… and as my good friend and colleague Nelah likes to point out… between March 2005 and August 2006 (just shy of a year and a half) I accomplished a series of life milestones: first new car, new job, new wife, new baby, first new house, and as if that wasn’t enough… I also started Graduate School.
A couple years ago I read an article that described each of the above items as ‘life changing events’ and discouraged people from take on more than one of those events in a twelve month period.
Oops.
So yeah, 2007 was a settling in year for the whole family… and for that reason; the whole year is kind of a blur. But, it doesn’t look like I missed too much. Unlike Anderson Cooper’s previous disaster filled reviews… there seems to be a pop culture focus for 2007: Ann Nicole, Britney Spears, Paris Hilton, Harry Potter, The Sopranos, and the iPhone release.
Well… one of the 11 million Harry Potter books mentioned in the video is sitting on my book case… so I guess I was a connected to 2007 just a little bit… and it’s also the year I applied for the Foreign Service.
