I am watching The Golden Globes. Jeff Bridges just won. I really want to see his movie. Looks good. I think I am being dragged to see Avatar tom:P I kinda don’t want to go. IS it any good? Not sure if I’m up for a three hour movie:O

Last year when I put together this post I hoped that we could all strive for fewer injuries in 2011. Yeah, I said that. It’s right there in sans serif shrugging its shoulders at the insane amount of money I’ve paid orthopedic surgeons in the last couple of months. Obviously, I’m not going to mention anything concerning broken body parts for next year because I’ll either lose an entire hemisphere of my body or, you know, HEART ATTACK.

But didn’t the Mayans say we’re all going to die in 2012? If that is indeed that case, let’s rip it up next year. Take the most outlandish bullet point on your bucket list and make it your bitch. Base jump off Burj Khalifa. Hike Kilimanjaro. Quit your job and move to New York because that’s what your dreams always wished you would do. Fall into such reckless love that the pulse in your ears drowns out the nagging voice of reason.

What follows is a collection of my favorite posts from the last year and my annual video of the year in photos. Another year, another wild ride: gall bladder surgery, an enlarged ovary. Mexico, New Orleans, New York, Palm Springs, San Francisco. A trip to the other side of the world. My oldest child entering second grade. A marathon. My heart cracking open because suddenly I’m alive.
