You know Dr. Who personally? Very cool!

;)

BTD: found 2-lb bags of honeycrisp at TJ's for $3.50/ea, so I grabbed a couple. They pair nicely with the Delice de Bourgogne cheese they also sell.

That's cool. I'm personally not willing to pay more than 99c/lb for apples though so I'll just have to wait for Sprouts to put them on sale again.

There are a lot of apple types I know I"m not nuts about (including the ones I was raised on, which explains why I'm only recently getting into them), so for me, its worth the investment in what I know to be one of the best ones. But yeah, expensive.

If an apple isn't green on the outside it isn't worth putting on the inside. Just my (objectively correct) opinion anyway.

Honeycrisp got really expensive these last six months or so.

Me, last year.

Wow, did I ever f'n fail that one!

I had a lot of ups and downs... many of which I didn't share publicly. At the sum of the year, it seemed that much is up in my world.

This year has gotten off to a very good start, and I hope to continue in this direction. Some goals:

Run a 5K: This happens next Friday, at Epcot. Huzzah!

Run a half-marathon: This is tentatively slated for the half at Disneyland in September. That said, I am giving serious consideration to half in July here... so perhaps it won't be my first half-marathon.

Get out of this apartment and into a house.

Other than that, be happy, be happier, stay happy, that sort of thing.

I don't really like resolutions, in fact I wrote a blog about it several years ago the main point of which was:

Quote:

Why bother with resolutions? Resolutions are often made in the throes of Christmas party drunkenness. Being fit enough to run a marathon sounds so cool when you're drunk. But then in the harsh light of a sober morning, it just sounds like a lot of hard work. But the rub is that we are too embarrassed to admit that our grand plans were really just grandstanding. So, as in most things, we stick to our story no matter how preposterous. In our lame attempts to convince everyone, we even go through the motions of carrying out said resolution. Then after a few weeks, when we think no one is looking, we think to ourselves, "screw this". If anyone asks, that sore knee from high school has been acting up. And then when next December rolls around, and the old year is once again coming to a close, we promise ourselves that we will only resolve to be able to run a mile. And we mean it, until that poor jerk at next year's Christmas party starts up about the triathlon in July.

So this year, I vow to keep my resolutions to myself. That way come March I won't have to explain my lame-o actions to anyone. It will remain between me, and the peas.

However, in the hope that I am always adapting and growing, I resolve to clear at least SOME clutter from my life. I don't much care whether it is the physical or emotional (both would be nice) but some WILL be gone by this time next year. Really.

I wouldn't call is a resolution as such, but I do plan to stop looking at things and asking myself "Do I need that?" and instead think about what I need and then look for that.

Starting with all that CES stuff.

You don't want the device that monitors your plants via Bluetooth?

Probably because they are out of season.
