Resolved.

For the first time, ever (at least that I can remember), semi-new year’s resolutions!

Or just resolutions, or things that have been floating about the brain wanting to get pinned down.
(Incidentally, anyone else feel like there’s a stigma attached to resolutions now? It’s like, if you’ve made it a resolution, everyone around you takes your statement an order of mag. less seriously.)
Or maybe, since I’m not making it “measurable” or anything like that…it’s more a list of stuff that I want to do.
Anywho, here goes with the resolutions to supplement my resolution to make resolutions.

• Watch TED talks. http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks
• Write a short story and hide it from the world.
• Dance more!

(No, you don’t want to see it. But Funks SF is having south bay classes now, and I still know people who do the social dance rounds…gotta milk it before I’m beyond shamefully sketchy/old.)

• Consistently exercise more days than not, and do strength training in addition to cardio.

And the real goal here is to be in shape such that it’s my skill level and not fatigue/wimpy body that stops me from snowboarding/surfing/bike riding.

• Make some jewelry. Actually, make anything that involves a propane torch + metal.

These are all pretty self-serving. No volunteering, no “plant 10 trees.” Someday…And I suspect some of these (say, write short story) might have to move to the “before I die” list. Which currently only has one entry.
