2011
Stubbornly avoiding sleep. Can’t believe we are at the year’s end yet again. Ever feel like it takes a full year to feel the age you are (or get used to the idea of)? I feel like it takes a full year to get used to the idea of a new year. Funny how that works. 2011, I barely knew thee. Farewell.
