I admit, I did some pretty slick things in aught-nine. I went to Argentina. I lived in North Carolina. I spent an unprecedented amount of time in The North. I interned at two different museums. I started my 2nd year of grad school, then took a leave of absence shortly thereafter. I started walking dogs and getting paid for it. I willingly learned to cook. Here are some of my favourite memories.
And so, 2009, I bid you adieu!

i'm an art history grad student (4 more months!) and i'm trying to decide what gallery to work at (read: where to live!) - which museums did you work at?

Well, the grad program I was in is part of the Smithsonian, so if you qualify for a fellowship, you essentially intern for a Smithsonian museum. In my case, I worked in the exhibition design department of the American Art Museum, which handles both the SAAM and the Renwick Gallery. The second museum was a little house museum in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, the Whalehead Club. Loved every minute of that one.
I much preferred living and working at the beach, but Washington and the Smithsonian are pretty sweet, too, if they're hiring. I believe that they advertise jobs on usajobs.com.
Good luck!
