January
A massive blizzard shut down most of the East Coast. New York City was in a total shutdown as sanitation workers were barely able to clear the roads for days. I think that was in January. Wait, that happened in December 2010. No, wait, there was another in January, right? I just remember walking to a party in Williamsburg and there were still huge dunes of snow.
February
The Packers won the Super Bowl.
March
Is March when the Oscars is? I think so. I didn’t get to see a lot of Oscar winning movies. I had no interest in seeing Avatar, but that’s more 2010 stuff creeping into this 2011 list. I think this is also when I finally grew a beard for real.
April
Not much happens in April, does it. It’s usually when the weather is nice. I think this is when Charlie Sheen went cuckoo-bananas. I’d have to look that up. That was really weird, right? Everyone was paying attention to a coke-addled, bipolar sitcom star. And why, cause he had catch-phrases in real life and not just on a show? Anyway, I felt bad for Jon Cryer, who seems like a decent dude.
May
Matt and Danielle got married.
June
Things get fuzzier for me here because this is when I started working on The Earwolf Challenge with Left Handed Radio and my hair turned grey.
July
America celebrated it’s 235th 4th of July!
August
I think this is when Hurricane Irene happened. I remember I had to buy a lot of supplies in case New York was destroyed. I bought a bunch of dropcloth to cover the windows, which became makeshift curtains for a while. I also bought a lot of water in WIlliamsburg where everyone kept talking about how they didn’t prepare for the hurricane at all. That seemed pretty stupid to me at the time.
September
Man, am I on September already?
October
I went to the New York Comic Con a few times. Then it was Halloween, which was fun. Oh, it snowed? That was really weird.
November
I feel like there might have been a big news story I miss. When did we kill bin Laden? Was that in April and I forgot? Anyway, we took down the dropcloths and got real curtains.
December
I definitely remember that we killed Kim John Il. That was before Christmas.
