2007: See Ya Later Sucka

Odd-numbered years tend to not be my best years**. All of the peskier parts of my life have occurred in '89, '01, '03, etc. So, while it's mostly in my head, I just love even numbered years... they give me hope. And hope, if you haven't heard, is a big theme this year. Just ask Obama.

So, I know it's a bit late, but here are my resolutions for 2008. I do hope you enjoy:

1. MAKE IT HAPPEN.
   
2. Emulate Anthony Bourdain whenever possible.
3. Don't emulate the smoking habit of Anthony Bourdain.
4. Read more books. Lots more.
5. Become a real Chilean (aka speak fluent Spanish)
6. Answer my phone when it rings.
7. Return calls when I legit miss them.
8. Learn to cook.
9. Learn to love.
10. Play scrabble like the bad-ass I know I am.
11. Eat more fruit.
12. Drink less Diet Coke.
13. Try, try hard, to enjoy Pittsburgh.
    

With a lot of these... I got a head start in 2007, which makes me v. happy. The rest of them... we'll have to see how it goes.

** That's putting it mildly.
