P'tok! Actually one less on the board than last year! I met Chris in October or November (and started a new job in my local ER) so that may have distracted towards the end of the year but otherwise more classes and more distractions to work around. No regrets though, rather a fabulous year. Healthy doses of Gawande here, much ado about the Art of Dying on this list, and other meditations on aging well. A list of a young person trying to read Wisdom onto her own soul or something. What larks, as my friend says. What larks, indeed. Try better in 2010 Laura!
