Best astronomy nerdy event this year: after the body provisionally known as Xena was renamed Eris, in compensation its moon was called Dysnomia, the Greek for "lawlessness", as tribute to Xena actress Lucy Lawless. :D

cons: made dumb decisions at work; in debt; one friend killed in motorbike accident, two others left the country.
summary: more dud than classic.

(a.) Got major work promotion.(b.) Purchased my first "I own this" home (I still can't believe it).(c.) Got to communicating with some of my favorite personalities.(d.) Further established some friendships.(e.) Actually liking my work colleagues now.(f.) I gave up on compromising and started on being true to only myself.
Bad parts about 2006:
(a.) Now I have to wake up at 4 am to get to work on time.(b.) Old house still not sold; market slowly getting colder.(c.) Communicating with one's heroes not completely all its cracked up to be.(d.) Woke up to the fact that some of my "friends" weren't.(e.) Trying to fight some of my impulse to isolate myself from these lovely new work colleagues.(f.) This uncompromised me has alienated some people.
Oh, but I only had one bout of bronchitis this year, and my early summer surgery was an inadvertent impetus for the change in my work situation, and now I know I can handle surgery with just a local, and I've got other health issues under control.
