I can't wait to hear the story of this year.
I too did a project that was meant to be one year and became three. Mine was a time travel journey, in that I lived as if it was 1955 and it seriously changed my life, but it's so involved I usually don't speak of it that much as I did a blog for 3 years about it. It's part of me now but so involved to share :)
oooh! that sounds very cool. These stories take some telling, I think we have to come at them from a few directions.
