2006 Was Just This Year, You Know?

I lost a lot of weight, read a lot of books, taught a lot of classes, did a bit of research, and oh, yeah, I got tenure. I think that last outweighs the miserable stomach problems by, oh, quite a bit.

And now, that’s officially last year, at least for those using the Western calendar system. Happy New Year, unless you’re on some lunar calendar thing, in which case, um, have a good Monday.

It’s traditional to wish that the New Year be better than the last, but 2006 is going to be a hard one to top, for me at least. Still, it’s not just about me, so may your 2007 be better than 2006, or at the very least, better than you expect.

Happy New Year.
