The past 10 years, upon reflection, have been pretty interesting (in that "Chinese proverb kind of way":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_you_live_in_interesting_times). Thanks to the blog, events of at least 6 of those years have been "reasonably well documented":http://blog.imabug.net/archives.
Among the notable events:
* Started off the decade settling into a new job in a new city
* Got married
* "Added":http://blog.imabug.net/archives/2004/11/the-wife-and-i.php a furry 4-legged family member
* "Bought a house":http://blog.imabug.net/archives/2005/01/i-think-we-foun.php
* "Moved":http://blog.imabug.net/archives/2005/05/20/ into new house
* "Added another":http://blog.imabug.net/archives/2006/04/a-new-addition.php furry 4-legged family member
* Expanded my social circle with things like "Lowcountry Bloggers":http://www.lowcountrybloggers.com/, "Twitter":http://twitter.com/imabug, "Identi.ca":http://identi.ca/imabug/, "Facebook":http://www.facebook.com/eugenem, "Friendfeed":http://friendfeed.com/imabug, "CSCLUG":http://csclug.org/ and other social things.
* "Fostered":http://blog.imabug.net/cgi-bin/MT4/mt-search.cgi?blog_id=12&tag=foster&limit=20 several other furry 4-legged kids
* "Started a PhD":http://blog.imabug.net/cgi-bin/MT4/mt-search.cgi?blog_id=12&tag=phd&limit=20
Like previous decades, 4 had ups and some big downs (which are not documented), not unlike the economy. Heading into decade 5, PhD work will probably dominate the first half, although I'm looking forward to a lot of other fun things to go on as well.
So far it's starting off on a pretty good note.
