Happy New Year

2005 was a very good year. I got married, I changed careers, finally remodeled (almost done), and made it three decades in a row without being incarcerated, losing a limb, or going bankrupt.

I'm about 1/4th of the way towards finishing 100 resolutions for 2006. Writing them down, not actually completing them. One of them will be to actually look at the goals I keep in my wallet more than once every few years. My uncle embarrased me a few years back when he found it and made a copy to show to his high school class. Ever since then I have always had some strange shame associated with the goals I have not yet achieved.

So 2006 will be better. My diet will start today, not tomorrow. Since alcohol makes you stupid, I will finally stop getting dumber. With a gym six quick blocks from work, and a commute that is 15min less at 5:45 than at 6:45, I have run out of excuses.

I hope this year is full of whatever you wish/work for.

And I'll be nicer to Sheree's cats. Happy New Year, indeed.
