Because it made me giggle.  : )

In email chat with a co-worker (not so much a friend as a learning experience for me) today I asked if he had any New Year’s resolutions.  “Not really”, he said “I mean, I have some goals for the year but not any resolutions”.  And that got me thinking, as I often do this time of year, about the whole concept of the New Year’s resolution.  It’s the butt of many a joke.  I think some people half-heartedly make them without really believing they’ll stick to them… or maybe they do, I don’t know… but I think that this year, instead of resolutions, I’m going to set some goals for myself, hang them on the wall next to my desk and check them off one by one as I complete them in 2008.  I like lists.  They make me feel accomplished somehow.

 Happy holidays y’all, xoxoxo.
