1. Ride my bike more
Tommy G built me a really beautiful bike, and if I don't ride it, I am both flabby and a dick. So in riding my bike, I kill two birds with one stone. More importantly though, is the magic perspective you get of the world from the seat of a bicycle. It is a very worthy endeavor.
2. Understand the mechanics of taking a decent photo
Tommy G also enabled me to purchase a camera for Christmas (generous soul.) The Nikon D70 is at last in my possession. You don't need to know a lot for this camera to take a fine photo. Nevertheless, my goal this year is to take great pictures because I actually know what I am doing.
3. Kick the sugar habit
This needs no explanation. Sugar is the devil.
4. Get more exercise
This goes along with riding my bike, but bears repeating. I have a box in storage labeled "skinny pants" that contains just that. I would like very much to fit into those pants in the near future.
5. Sharpen my entrepreneurial skills
Graphic design and I are getting a divorce, but not until I find another way to feed myself. It's time to throw some enterprising veggies in my capitalist crock pot and see what kind of stew I get.
That was a pretty corny metaphor. I must be hungry.
I'm off to eat something lean and sugarless. Happy new year!
