I didn't have any highs or lows this year. It's right on the axis all the way really.

Thats more highs than lows!

My lows are too numerous to air in polite conversation.
2007 was such a bad year, that eventually the anticipation of the next disaster became my principle source of amusement.

On the plus while youse were being washed out I was basking on the continent, and when a nip came in the air there, I returned to a glorious autumn.
