Obligatory resolutions post
…because if you don’t write it down somewhere, you get to back out of it. Nevermind that it’s already January 5. These are, naturally, in addition to those things that are always under-the-surface resolutions, like “lose 10 pounds” and “run half marathon” (which I just realized is in a month and a day, yikes!).
- Take more vacation. Actually take it (no work email). And more travel. Get out of the country at least once; either revisit (a new country in) Europe or hit up Asia or South America for the first time.
- Take more pictures. Maybe suck it up and buy one of those fancy digital SLRs all my friends have.
- Hike more, camp more, bike more. Perhaps these don’t all belong together, but they are all sort of semi-ambitious weekend activities. Unless I manage to bike to work some day, which would be awesome but which I am reluctant to commit to.
- Stay in better touch. I can’t tell you the number of people I’ve felt bad about not calling or texting or emailing in the last year, for whatever reason. It doesn’t have to be exhaustive. Just not nonexistent.
I’m trying to cut myself off here, because I feel like I always come up with massive lists of goals I’ll never have time to achieve. But I also have a kind of “household” resolutions/to-do list with Peattie, which include things both semi-ambitious and small. So I’m cheating a little. But whatever.
Oh. And—surprise!—I’d like to write/blog more. Whatever form it takes.
Here goes nothing.
