very much a homebody, 2008 edition

From a couple of sources, the suggestion to list all cities in which I have spent a night away from home in 2008.

Orlando, Florida. (ICFA)
Waterford, Michigan. (nigelpuggle's mommy's birthday)
Ann Arbor, Michigan. (ditto)
Burlington, Massachusetts. (Readercon)
Chapel Hill, North Carolina. (Just got back from a whirlwind post-Christmas visit.)

I might have spent a night in Pleasantville, NY, for NYRSF at some point this year, but I can't remember.

That's really not much. The previous year I at least also had Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Portland, Maine.

My annual statement, with an amendment

This year, like a kidneystone, has finally passed. We are well to be rid of it.

The amendment: Only 19 days until things have a chance of getting better.

Six short

I read 994 comics in 2008. Yikes.

And I wonder why I don't get any books read. Sheesh.
