As I do every year, today I will recap the previous year's blog posts by giving you the first sentence of the first post of each month. Last year Elena asked me whether this tradition makes me hyper-aware throughout the year of what I post on the first of each month, but the truth is that I forget all about it as soon as it's done!
January: To everyone reading this—whether you're a "regular," an occasional visitor, a frequent commenter, a lurker, or someone who just popped in this once—I wish you and your loved ones a 2009 filled with happiness and good health and prosperity.
February: Does your house occasionally go through phases where everything falls apart at the same time?
March: Well, this weekend is just getting sweller and sweller.
April: Rabbit, rabbit! (Although I forgot to say it, for the bazillionth month in a row.)
May: 1. Swamp - Talking Heads
June: A few days ago, I came across this article about David Foster Wallace, which discusses what might be the best "gateway" book for those of us who haven't read him yet.
July: Remember last year when I finally caved and bought Pete a Nintendo DS for his birthday?
August: Did you notice in yesterday's " iPod Random Ten" list that "Tennessee Jed" came up—but instead of by the Grateful Dead, it was by Levon Helm?September: Last week Steph spent a night at her best friend's house, and she came home raving about the dinner they had.
October: You can "get your drug on" here (courtesy of the drug-testing folks at Cedra).
November: Pete has a permanent tooth coming down next to his baby tooth, instead of right down on top of it in order to push it out.
December: We did a massive cleanup before Thanksgiving, which meant that afterward we had to locate all the stuff we'd stashed in out-of-the-way places.
LOL, I barely remember asking you that, but it does sound like me!

This makes me curious about my own first-of-the-month posts!
