in my cd player... Patsy Cline Twelve Greatest Hits   on the page... Michael Chabon Wonder Boys   into... missing my favorite booksellers; warm spring-like days; planning for patio breakfasts come warm weather; Landon's sweet Texas drawl   end of an era... I marked another aging milestone today by paying off one of my student loans. Writing out my last check for $3.31 just made me feel creaky and old.   finally kicked his own ass... Today was MEDITECH bonus day... and subsequently the annual I'm-taking-my-vested-pension-and-running fest. I broke free of the golden handcuffs this time last year... and today Bruce famous-for-kicking-my-ass Cote resigned. Bruce rocks.
