“John Aubrey, A Life,” a new and remarkable biography by Ruth Scurr is how I started the new year, and it’s a startling and beautifully written book about a great English biographer from the 17th century.  Between that and seeing six patients yesterday, I’m off to a fine start.

Then last night?  PIZZA PARTY!!!  Santarpio’s, four pies: Sausage, pepperoni, anchovy, mushroom.  Whoa.  Perfect pies.  “Bridesmaids,” on Amazon Prime, cold IPA’s.  FULL DISCLOSURE: Pepe’s wasn’t able or willing to sell any pizzas until 915 that night.  Santarpio’s was Plan B.

2016 doesn’t, frankly, hold much more promise than 2015, 2014, 2013, etc.  It’ll be same as always, I reckon.  That is, if we’re lucky.
