2006: The Year In Brief
Biggest surprise: being sent to France for work
Biggest personal achievement: 4.5-day solo vacation in Paris
Biggest professional achievement: promotion to Academic Advisor/records supervisor
New interests: David Foster Wallace's writing, UIUC Music Library, tennis
Rediscovered interest: ballet lessons
Biggest regret: not attending one of Tom Waits' concerts. I've examined my main reasons for not going and they're all complete "it's complicated" crap. No more of that in future, I should hope.
Best new media release: Tom Waits' Orphans album.
