2013 was indeed a year. 2014 is also going to be a year. Hopefully eighty thousand times better than 2013. The highlight for me was getting a kick-ass job at Automattic in October. Now let’s look at some numbers of things that I did the way 2013 would have liked best: Buzzfeed style.
1 phone shattered

Turns out it can’t survive a three foot fall if an iPad is body-slamming it to the floor.
1 WordCamp attended

I took every sticker.
2 email templates built

<table><vomit /></table>
2 make.wordpress.org projects contributed to

Seriously, I’ve been having a ton of fun.
4 conventions attended

Two of which involved space, Batmen, and many bars.
3 programming languages learned

That’s right. I know basic PHP syntax now.
4 coworking spaces… worked at

And all of them are pretty much exactly like this.
5 sketchbooks ruined

So many thumbnails.
6 hour Eclipse game played (and won)

“Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds fleets.”
8 states traveled to

Including Kansas: Kansas Simulator
10+ WordPress Happiness Hours

I learned so much about certain naughty themes.
12 websites designed and built

That I will admit to building.
14 Amazon.com orders

And about 30 missed UPS deliveries.
20+ games of Cards Against Humanity

HR Violation.
21 github commits

Expect a much higher number in 2014.
35+ Automatticians met

Which is kind of a big deal considering there are only eight in Colorado.
74 Pens penned

Can’t, won’t, don’t stop
420+ quarters used for laundry

So many black T-shirts.
600+ quarters spent at the arcade

Mostly on Stargate pinball.
