Post the first sentence of the first posting of each month in your LJ as your 2004 "year in review." (I also added the subjects for each entry cited).
January:
no subject
Now that I have a featherbed and a down comforter I may never ever again leave my bed.
February:
Just Call Me Mrs. Dalloway
I did not buy the flowers.
March:
The Passion and BABIES! I mean, BRAINS!
I know, at times I come across, at least in this medium, as a disembodied entity that watches the news, therefore she is.
April:
My adventures in the land of television
I saw Goodbye Lenin last night.
May:
More victims of the Global War on Terror
In one of those corners of the world that are forgotten by contemporary "geography," which is kind of like being forgotten by history, but more immediate: Relatives of Pakistanis Executed in Macedonia to Seek Damages
June:
NB: um, embarassingly, I just realized that my first sentence for June goes on for paragraphs and I am not going to reproduce it here, so I am going with the first sentence of the next entry (which also goes on for a paragraph, but at least it's paragraph singular):
Explain It To Me
Maybe (definitely) I am retarded when it comes to geography and the curvature of the Earth, I mean, I found Ben Affleck's nemesis machine in Paycheck (a contraption that has a lens so potent that it can see around the curviture of the universe and back to where it started from, and thus predict the future) as puzzling, yet intuitively understandable, as Foucault's pendulum (the thing hanging in the Arts et Metiers not the Eco book) or seasonal thermocline.
July:
It's eleven minutes into my birthday
I am so tired I could barely ride my bike straight tonight.
August:
10 Things you probably don't know about me
1. I applied (and got in) to an underwater archaeology graduate program.
September:
RNC Vignettes
I am tired. (Nice continuity from July!)
October:
Gained in Translation
I should probably writing about the debates or fact that I am leaving the country in, like, 36 hours but fuck that shit, it's stressing me out.
November:
A Universal History of Infamy
I spent a restless night, with dream fragments, rather than dreams.
December:
To Think of Cinnamon
In the dream I wanted to leave the theater and was angling to catch a cab.

Lots of tired and sleeping and dreams.
