I'm lame. Not much of a reader. I don't get to do much of anything JW mentioned. I'm all set in the job department. And I could use improvement in the stress department.
Good ones!Oh please let it rain today.

I'm finally going to buy a winning lottery ticket to a big jackpot, but not too big...>25M sounds nice.
After I win said lottery, I will go on the supposed PJ tour on the other coast. Just a few dates...need to make sure I see people over there. I will hire a driver, fuck driving around on the east coast and dealing with them.
While on tour, I will treat said friends I will be visiting to a night out.
When I get home I guess I should be responsible and pay off mortgages.
Then donate to the shelter I volunteer for.
Buy some vacation property.
Go on possible fall PJ tour...or PJ25.
Go on vacation to different countries...maybe fly first class.
That should fill up my schedule for the year...The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

When I "give" up something, like a food something, my life usually alters dramatically. In 1986 I gave up chocolate and I moved from NJ to Michigan for college. That was a big change. in 1993 I gave up chocolate and I moved from Madison, Wisconsin to Seattle. It was my first time to live west of the Mississippi. This year I'm giving up sweets (except mochas), and savory junk . . . to see what will happen. Maybe I'll see many rumored Pearl Jam shows! I can't wait to see what will happen. It's like a transference of energy to a new focal point. Kindof cool!
Also, I'm increasing my running per week. I'm excited about increasing my core strength this way, and I'll have abs-of-steel by this time next year (Yippee!)There is no such thing as leftover pizza. There is now pizza and later pizza. - anonymous

I don't normally do resolutions. I had thought of something the other day, though and now I can't remember what it was. I'm just gonna rip off Brian's and go with reading. My love of books and reading has seriously fallen by the wayside and I think it's time to reclaim that "me" time. But I'm not going to wait for Jan 1st. I'm gonna start tonight. Finish the current series I'm reading before Jan1 and then re-read The Hitchhiker's Guide, this time in the correct order! Paperbacks this time. Then I'm going after Ursula LeGuin. Still haven't read anything of hers other than The Left Hand of Darkness. Might read it again. Might just go through my whole collection shelf by shelf after that.NYC 06/24/08-Auckland 11/27/09-Chch 11/29/09-Newark 05/18/10-Atlanta 09/22/12-Chicago 07/19/13-Brooklyn 10/18/13 & 10/19/13-Hartford 10/25/13-Baltimore 10/27/13-Auckland 1/17/14-GC 1/19/14-Melbourne 1/24/14-Sydney 1/26/14-Amsterdam 6/16/14 & 6/17/14-Milan 6/20/14-Berlin 6/26/14-Leeds 7/8/14-Milton Keynes 7/11/14-St. Louis 10/3/14-NYC 9/26/15

I don't make resolutions, but if I were to make a so called resolution, it would be for this new year to be better than 2015, because this year has by far been the worst of my 33 years. I vow to never let myself get as low as I did this year, I vow to be a better person, a better mother, a better wife, a better friend.Music is my Religion and Pearl Jam, my Savior!

So sweet. I agree with hedonist. We aren't perfect and women tend to take on way more emotionally anyway. We are the worry warts.hedonist said:

My only resolution for 2015 was to get a roll of film developed that has been sitting on the shelf for a few years. Yeah...that still hasn't happen. So following through on resolutions is not my thing.ELITIST FUK0
