Cathy and I break up.

I try to kill myself.  An attempt is made to hospitalize me. I avoid this by agreeing to therapy.

I spend a lot of the summer in therapy and on anti-depressants.

I stay on campus during the summer, rooming with Ryan.  We have a mysterious passive-aggressive falling out.  But then we went out to the soccer field and beat each other up with foam SCA swords.  It seemed to help.

I discover the card game Magic: The Gathering.  I promptly become obsessed with it, dragging everyone around me into a sick addiction.  I ended up making about $600 selling premium cards on the Internet. Pre eBay, yo.
