Dark Brown Waffles

A quick postscript for 2011: I didn’t do anything of note. An entire year went by with nothing to show for it. That’s lame. So for 2012, the following:

Write More: because I don’t write now, and because it is a thing I’ve spent a long time doing and loving. I have no idea what success will be defined as, so we’ll simply say 200,000 words or more. And no, I don’t have idea how I’ll count that. 

Exercise More: at least run more. It’s ridiculous that my running has slowed to a crawl, although dodgy knees and dodgier temperatures have made it easier for me to stay in bed and on the couch. 

Eat Better: I know how I’ll measure this one. Specifically, I’ll weigh 225-230 pounds. Maybe that’s setting the bar too low - “Why don’t you shoot for 210, huh?” say people I don’t like - but I have to account for reality, and the reality is that my frame would look better to me if I weighed about 225 pounds. Anything less than that is unrealistic. Anything more than that is a bummer. 

We’ll see though. I have a history of making these promises and not following through. Still, it’s getting to be depressing, getting older and doing less of the things I love and more of the things that I don’t.
