-Thanks for validating my OCD (regarding keeping track of everything in my life) by noting the number of books you have read. Once again, you out-read me by a healthy margin. I read 41 books this year. However, there are still a few days remaining in 2005 and I have 3 books at home all with <100 pages remaining. I suppose, though, that your number will increase between now and the 31st as well.
-Only 10 of the books I read this year are fiction. My highlight was "Deception Point", by Dan Brown. My lowlight was "The Notebook" by Nick Sparks.
-After starting a new job in 2001, 2002 and 2004, it was nice to go the entire calendar year without a change in this part of my life.
-I only attended one concert this year (311).
-No business trips.
-My wife and I celebrated our 9 year anniversary.
-Sounds like your anniversary celebration was fun. I heard there were some really cool people in attendance.
-James Z.
