I'm not congratulating myself at all, but looking back with a sense of relief. I'm also relieved that, during the past year, I had no unneeded root canals, didn't replace the new tires on my car and...

That's kind of a "sez who?" question. Why evoke a name from a well known book and then do something else? Just make up your own name, if you want to make up your own plot.
