Life: New Year's Resolutions

So, I thought I'd take a gander at my resolutions for 2006 and see how I did this past year. This should be good for embarassment…

1. Drink less soda.
2. Eat more fruits and vegetables.
3. Lose 5lbs. (starting at 211lbs)
4. Run 8 miles in 60 minutes.
5. Remember that I’m not always right, even if I think I am.
6. Get more sleep.
7. Finish the drawers for the built-in.
8. Write more.

Hmm. And the results are:

1. Drank more, then less, then more, then less. Result: wash 
2. Check! Yay me.
3. Well, I was down 5 pounds in September for the big 24-hour race I did (Yay). (Which I forgot to write about…see #8). But then I ballooned back up over Thanksgiving.(poo)
4. I managed 7.53 in an hour, but never got to 8mph. Boo.
5. Got better at this, but there's room for improvement.
6. Lessee…new baby, bigger projects. Nope. Totally missed this one. 
7. *shudder* Fuck. 
8. I did indeed write more. Got published a few times, though I probably need to be a bit more dilligent here, no?

Whew. I suppose I could regift my resolutions from last year and give them to myself for this year. Sigh.

Well, before I go, two small bits of kvetching. 1. I was sitting in the airport today and CNN is always on in every airport, seemingly. This in and of itself is not such a big deal. The problem arises in that every time I hear Nancy Grace's voice, I vomit inside my mouth a little bit. Ugh. What a toad. 2. And not nearly so bad, but I find the new search for the MoG site to be a little eh. Y'know? And how can a view a person's list of entries by title only, so I don't have to click through pages and pages to get to old posts?   Again, just kvetching. Have a good new year everybody, and here's hoping you don't get heckled by an angry mob during your execution any time soon.
