Great thread!

2011: Got dx'd for both BP and ADHD, started treatment. 2 articles accepted to "A" journals, best poster award, dissertation progress, secured a postdoc for next year, invited speaker gig in the UK. Completed end-to-end hike of a 120-mile trail. (why yes, I am an overachiever...)

2012: Get stable! Get sober, which I know I need to do despite resisting and resenting it. Improve my physical health, since 7 years of grad school sitting behind a computer has taken quite a toll. Hike the CL50, a 50-mile loop around Cranberry Lake in the Adirondacks. Most important of all: finish and defend dissertation (Dr. Maniac!), start new job, ????, PROFIT!
