No, I'm already perfect.

Probably the only one I ever made and kept was giving up the cigs years
ago. Other than that, I guess I think resolutions saved for one special date
on the calendar when they could be made any time are kinda silly.

Mine for 2008:

--Drink less Diet Coke and more water
--Be nicer to people I don't like (except Yankee fans)
--Say less and listen more

Make a menu every week. We stopped last summer and it's utter chaos at supper time now.

Not to get all gay and what not, but our evening meals could use some res-
olutions. We go (well, KB does) to the store almost every day, waste food and
money doing so, and should eat healthier many nights.

I may consider "resolutin'" this in the next day or so.

That's exactly what our problem is. $100 bucks a week for groceries, then pickups everynight.

hmm.. weekly menus... i think i remember something about that in my home ec class in high school... i try to do that mentally when i go to the store, figuring on what i want to get, but by the end of the week, that's all shot to hell. might be a good thing to start up in earnest.

my two big resolutions are to try to set race-specific pr's in every race i do this year, and also to play less wii - that thing is a time-sucker! (lego star wars is the coolest)

My wife and I are attempting to lose 20 pounds by opening day. The kid has jumped on the bandwagon as well as he will join us in eating better and being more active.

We are going out for a feast tonight.

Call my parents more (82 and 76).
Lose 15 pounds.
Be happier when the Mets win but not as upset when they don't. The world didn't end after last season's you-know-what.

Yep, that's the way to do it!

I enjoy the wins and shrug off the losses.

Less time on the computer and more time exercising. The balance of my time has skewed too far toward the "couch potato" lifestyle the past few years.

Gotta lose 15 pounds -- the 10 I was supposed to lose last year + the 5 I gained (!!) last year. How did that happen? Oh yeah, I eat and drink too much.

Start working out again. Become more efficient at work. Spend less time fucking around on the internet.
