What I Loved And When I Loved It

Interesting thing I saw from writer Susan Orlean today on Twitter--she posted a series of tweets about what she loved best about 2010. In that inspirational spirit, here's my list, in no particular order:

• Being able to use my right hand again
• Finally getting a Mac
• Discovering Alt.Latino podcasts
• Meeting my boss
• Trying trapeze
• Living in my City, as always
• Rediscovering red wine
• My team, the one everyone thought was a joke, winning the World Series
• The Yankees not winning the playoffs
• The extra time that I got to spend with my brother in September because he was working up here
• My friends, virtual and live
• My Visconti pen
• Jon Stewart and "The Daily Show"'s impact on the news
• The books I read, particularly "The Lacuna"
• The movies that I saw, particularly "The King's Speech"
• Trying new things and failing, like cooking goose
• The orchid that I bought in August that still has one lone bloom on it
• The concerts I saw this year--Huey Lewis, Rufus Wainwright, etc
• Trying on a wedding dress, even if it was probably for the last time
• Falling in love with anejo tequila
• Learning new words in Italian and Spanish ("Attraversiamo," "Que milagro")
• Writing...one more year

Tomorrow--what I look forward to in 2011. Onward.
