Happy new year!!

I hope everyone had a fantastic New Year's Eve.  Mine was spent at home with my 6 closest buddies, playing Rock Band all night.  For those who don't know, the controllers for the game are a drum set, a guitar, and a microphone.  It's basically like karaoke with a full band.  That game is FUN.  But anyway, the only thing that was different than a typical Saturday night was that we took a 5 minute break to do the countdown, champagne toast thing.  It was a good time.

I just spent a few minutes going through all my entries from 2007.  What a year.  Everything was pretty frantic for the first 6 months or so with all the wedding junk.  Reading about it made me miss that feeling of anticipation and excitement.  Man, that was a fun time.

I know making resolutions is hokey and stupid, but I've put some real thought into mine for 2008:

- Eat better... To be more specific, my goal is to eat breakfast, fruit, and vegetables every day. Not just those things obvi. But if I just concentrate on those aspects of my diet, I'm hoping my habits in general will improve. Plus I'm going with the idea that it's better to focus on the things I should do, instead of the things I shouldn't. If that makes any sense.

- Tone up... My goal is usually "lose weight, lose weight, lose weight!" But this year I'm concentrating on toning up. Honestly, if I stayed this weight and just tightened everything up all around, I'd be quite happy.

- Get into the routine of going to bed earlier... 10:30 is my goal, as opposed to my typical 11:30. Realistically though I should really shoot for 11:00. Some people can live happily on an average of 6-7 hours of sleep a night. I cannot.

- Cut the nights that I drink per week in half... Self-explanatory.

Here's to another great year!
