Year In review

Favorite Music:
(While my inspiration cited specific albums, that is rarely how I tend to listen to music. I instead list the best artists I discovered...with a few albums thrown in for good measure).
Sufjan Stevens
Rufus Wainwright
Bright Eyes (thanks Shaun)
Elliot Smith
Nick Drake
Colin Hay (anybody formerly of "Men at Work" has to be good)
Death Cab for Cutie/The Poastal Service (they're really the same thing anyway)
Jonathan Rice
...and tons more. As for a recent album addition:
"Songs from the Labyrinth" (Sting)

Favorite Books:
In Praise of Slowness (Honore)
The Art of Travel (de Botton)

Favorite Places:
White Sands National Monument (seriously, one of the coolest places on earth)

Ah...there's so much more...but not a bad year after all.
