I spent lots of time in libraries. My favorite is the Brookline Public Library (main branch) despite finding my librarian-nemesis there.
I was quietly depressed for much of the year. Today I feel balanced and happy.
I didn’t keep a consistent journal, but there were a few things I wrote that helped me in tough spots, and when I read them now I’m amazed I wrote them. I will try to write more in 2012.
I count my one big accomplishment reading and finishing 2666. It’s like (so far) having some caged animal, who now and then produces a growl or paces restlessly, disturbing my thoughts.
