I realized tonight that I never made new year’s resolutions this year. Not that it really matters — some of the typical resolutions that people make I’ve already got under my belt (go to the gym regularly), and others I have been planning anyway (do a triathlon). I suppose there could be some things on my list, though, like: 1) go to bed earlier (that one’s for you, Dad); 2) try to slow down a bit (Dad will like that one, too, actually); 3) entertain/cook more (I’m off to a good start with that one — I’m about to have my third dinner party in less than 10 days); and 4) go through my mail every day (rather than weekly, or even monthly, as it sometimes happens). The idea is to make them realistic rather than set myself up for failure. Any other ideas for resolutions?

(From a long time reader, first time commenter) And addendum to number two: Take time for yourself.
You have one of the most active social lives of that I know. (I’m envious!)

I liked this resolution to reserve talking on the phone to when you can focus your attention on the caller.

That being said, I haven’t made a resolution, so I think all of yours are pretty swell.

Resolutions should be happening all year long, but why not try something out of the ordinary if you haven’t already. Smile more. Compliment at least one different person every day. Ask a guy out on a date. Call a long lost high school pal to catch up.
