I think I've written this post before

Singing along to: One More Cup of Coffee, Roger McGuinn & Calexico

Remember all of those mildly optimistic things I said about 2009 yesterday? In that post where I pretended that I don't absolutely hate change and am not totally freaked out by the passage of time?

Well, screw that.

I am not mildly optimistic. I do absolutely hate change. I am totally freaked out by the passage of time.

I am, in fact, almost paralyzed by fear--irrational fear, of course, since there are good things that will come from 2009. I know that intellectually, but Internet, I am so scared. And I have no idea what to do.
