best _____ of 2006:
1. party: ummm I really don't go to many. I like the parties we've had at the apartment... Pi day, the Symposium before the federal election, the Christmas party
2. show: I became addicted to Laguna. It's terrible but I love it! I watched Lucky Louie on The Movie Network and enjoyed that. I like Ugly Betty and THE CLASS! I guess it would be The Class. It's the new show that I'm most impressed with, and I hope it survives for a while. AND OF COURSE, THIS
3. cd: I could be a loyal fan and say Dashboard's "Dusk and Summer" but really I don't like all of the songs. I got the Dixie Chicks album and love it but only because I'm in love with the singer.
4. movie: I really was impressed with the Dixie Chicks: Shut Up And Sing! I saw so many movies though and I completely can't remember them. In December I saw The Holiday and Stranger Than Fiction, and both were good.
5. song: Ummm. I can't think right now
6. experience: Getting cats? I really liked that International Festival of Authors. I hope I go again next year.
7. concert: PAUL SIMON. LIFE CHANGING
8. book: It didn't come out this year but I loooved Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran Foer
9. month: I can't differentiate between the months. My lazy summer months of not working, but it was summer and I hate heat. October was pretty good and event filled - Emily visited, the IFOA, seeing Death Cab...
