Well, everyone else with Internet access is busy writing their year in review pieces. Seeing as the internet strips you of your ability to formulate independent thoughts, I have no choice but to do so as well.

2008 was a year of change. We had a child, Rebecca graduated medical school and started her residency, I got a new job, and we moved back to Washington DC, my brother got engaged, and my sister-in-law got married. In world news, the Democrats dominated the elections, a Philadelphia sports team won a championship, there’s a brand new recession for us all to enjoy, and most people’s 401Ks shrank so much they’re now 301Ks. Want to know what I’m looking forward to in 2009? Stability. I plan to wake up each morning at 6, drop Aliza off at daycare, do my job, watch Aliza grow, lead the Rambam Chaburah at Kesher, read a few books, go running at least twice a week, and generally lead a boring life.
