Stranger than fiction...

How'd I miss that Al Franken was certified the winner of the Senate race from Minnesota this week??

I wish I'd been a fly on the wall at Fox News when that report came in. Hee hee!

Welcome 2009

I am still abed over 12 hours into the new year, but I'll remedy that soon. (I have a friend coming to hike with me.)

I have some plans & goals for the new year—craft more, worry less, exercise more, spend less—but only 4 real resolutions. With only 4, maybe I'll have a better shot at accomplishing them.

1. Go to bed at 11 every night and get up at 7:30 every morning.
This will be hard for me, but I'm finally getting to be convinced that it will help me be less tired every day and will make it easier to get to work on time.

2. Blog more consistently.
When I blog more, I find more to blog about. And it's a good practice to write more frequenty.

3. Spend more time with friends (and phone counts).
I love my work, but this year it completely took over my life. I will make an effort to socialize.

4. Practice not eating when I'm not hungry.
This one is hard because food is so comforting for me, but eating too much has a lot of costs. There are lots of steps, but this seems like a good one to start with.

OK, gotta get up now. Happy New Year. Here, have a kitty.
