new year's comin'...

i've never been much for resolutions. after the first few or fifty that i never stuck with, or just made because you're supposed to make them, i pretty much have given up on improving myself.

***not*** that i don't need improving!

oh my, ask t how much i need improving...

he wouldn't tell you cause that would be rude and he doesn't tend to speak badly of me.

nice guy.

but he knows.

anyway.

this year, i've decided that i could do with some real resolutions.

and what better way to get myself going than to post to my blog where i will see it consistently, feel more publicly guilty, and feel the bizarre determination to update uninterested third parties on my progress?

so this year i intend to try for some improvements.

notice how i said "try?"

keepin' it real, you know.

**teach my boys to {love} homework and chores, and >hate< video games**

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

**read my scriptures the way i did on my mission**

**wean myself off of soda. or at least just coke to start**

(hey, if poor keo can do it - we've lost (or actually i have a sneaking suspicion that t threw out) all of his binkies and while he is not managing to forget about them, he is managing to get on with life a little)

**suck up the shame, visit my old japanese prof, determine my current, much-lower-than-ten-years-ago level of competency (in japanese only - let's not get ahead of ourselves now) and enroll in an appropriate class**

**exercise. and not in the "walk to the convenience store to refill my coke" sense. real exercise**

that's a good start, right? let's leave it right there and see what happens. since i plan to, in the words of my sweet niece kait, "fail epically" at the first one, i need only work on the other four, really.

any good resolutions to share?
i want to hear!
