I very, VERY easily could rip into this absolute dumpster-fire of a year. Not only a year, but a "season" that started in November of 2015 and has kept on giving. But no, no. Good things happened this year, and I'm going to celebrate them. I went to the Womens March in January, which gave me the confidence to write, call, and fax my representatives.
