P & H

I arrived at work and opened my diary to today, and 'P & H' is written across the page in large letters, and I have no idea why. It has a box around it so it must have been important - all I can think of is Postage & Handling, and I'm pretty sure it's not that. Is this something I had to do? People I had to see? Some event I was meant to be going to? If anyone is meant to be doing P & H with me today please let me know.
Anyway I'ma do the Year In Review meme, which is where you post the first sentence of the first post for every month. I promise I did not make any of these up - go back and check if you like.

Jan - I am meant to be packing everything I own into suitcases, making lists of what is in the suitcases, taking things to the Salvation Army and booking a ferry ticket. Am I doing this? No.
Feb - Am sitting with a nice cup of tea, trying to get some work done.
March - I found my baby bok choi-shaped phone!
April - Well, the toilet fish went well!
May - I am reading the Home Care catalogue. (This was actually quite a good post.)
June - [no words, just a photo of Onesie Woman]
July - Fuck winter.
August - Today I accidentally went to the Ballantynes sale and was scared out of my wits.
September - This morning, in the Classified section of the paper, there was a Dreadful Error.
October - Hi everyone, I'm not dead, just lazy, so please come back tonight for a post in which I go to a burlesque show, have possibly the best idea for a restaurant ever (it is called Butter Fountain) and tell a moving children's story about a jellyfish shaped like a bottom.
November - First day of National Novel Writing Month.
December - This week = Christmas shopping.

The year seems to have become duller as it goes along! Shit it has gone fast, though. I feel like I have not achieved anywhere near as much as I should have. Anyone with me on this? I want another six months of this year. Although if the year was magically extended so that I could Achieve, I'm pretty sure I would still spend most of the time running around like a small child.

I have made a new meme! Headline five important events of your year. I tag EVERYONE (let me know if you do it.)

1. WELLINGTON IN MOURNING AS ALLY RETURNS TO CHRISTCHURCH
2. DEATH DURING EARTH HOUR INSPIRES HATRED OF PLANET
3. NEW JOB PROVIDES INCOME, AMUSEMENT, BLOGGING TIME
4. RETURN TO WORLD OF BRASS BANDING STARTLES!
5. SCIENCE STUNNED BY EXISTENCE OF LOVE LIFE: SCEPTICISM RIFE
