Total days in the fall with in-person social interaction: 52 (56.5%, a +7.6 percentage point change from winter)

. . . Sixty-two people! This seems to be what happens: the numbers spike in both the fall and the spring (this Social Review falls one person short of last fall's record sixty-three people), this time around because of the usual things: my Birth Week, in particular; but also parties, like Gabriel's birthday family get-together, and the going-away gathering at Myrtle Edwards Park for Sara W and a few co-workers.

Shobhit, as always, is #1 -- but his points are up dramatically from winter, when he got 26 points; now he's got 38, a notable boost given him by the amounts of time we spent together both during my Birth Week with other friends, and our weeklong vacation just last week to Wallace, Idaho and then Yellowstone National Park -- one of the greatest vacations we've ever gone on.

The only other notable shift from recent norms this time around is Ivan's expected drop in the rankings. Given he officially moved out on Valentine's Day, it's no shock that he's no longer ranked #3, as he had been pretty consistently for the previous year. That said, he didn't drop quite as much as I thought he would -- with three points, he remains in the top 10, and only barely edges out of the top 5 with his ranking at #6. Only the most expected and sensible people rank ahead of him, even after he's moved out of the country: Shobhit, Laney, Karen, Danielle and Gabriel. The usual suspects, who dominate my social life. I still ranked Ivan at the top of the six people who got three points each, because Ivan came to stay at our place twice and as such I spent more time with him cumulatively than I did any of those others. I get the feeling I will continue seeing him pretty regularly for the forseeable future, as he still needs to make several visits so he can systematically get all the rest of his stuff out of our storage unit over time.
