As is typical of many a person, I begin the New Year utterly thankful that 2011 is done, over finito. And making lists... that's a traditional way to start off the new year. Here goes:
*I will eat more salad in the New Year.
*I will get more exercise. (How mundane can I be?!!???)
*I will be nicer to Republicans and Tea Baggers and Conservatives in the New Year. (Well, you have to
include a few things that you won't actually do, but they sound open-minded and possible!)
*I will spend more time making art this year. What with our moving (which seemed like it would never be
completed) and my eye injury, I didn't get the studio time I needed and wanted. And I typically have such
a good track record of studio application!
*I will try to worry less about money. I guess I could tie that to generating more money, but even worrying
less would be a big step! And making more money is very problematic in this economy.
*I will prioritize even more effectively than I already do. (I think that sentence was guilty of some pretty
awful grammar but you get my drift.) I already spend plenty of time with my dog in the great out of doors,
but I'll spend more time... that good, well used time. I refuse to spend one second more than is absolutely
essential on the phone arguing over bureaucratic details...
*I will cure cancer, eliminate prejudice and inequality, give everyone a raise, stop wars, pick up litter, feed
the hungery and reverse global warming. And that's just the first week of January. (And so, we return to
Janus, and that pesky habit of speaking out of both sides of the mouth).
That's it for now.
