I like that 3894!

Well, for once in my life I'm going to keep my resolution to lose weight. In 2011 I made a good start. So, for 2012, I hope to lose another 50 pounds as a modest and doable goal. If it goes like 2011, I will actually lose more weight. I'm eating healther, though I always thought I was fairly mindful (except for the insane amounts of bread and pasta I scarfed away). I feel like a new person, it's pretty great.

I also resolve to write more in 2012. I'm not particularly gifted, but I love it. That's what the blog is for and I plan to be a more regular poster.

I also resolve to do some serious research for Dorothy. 2011 slipped by with little hunting and gathering by me. Again, a process I enjoy and I hope to make a trip to WI to Madison, there's some good stuff hidden away there I need to access. NY beckons, too. The Gish papers are at the NYPL.

The job thing is going to be a tougher nut to crack. I work for 2 really good people, but the firm itself, post merger, ack. It could not be more soul sucking. Environment can be stronger than will and I am surrounded by mega unhappy people. Being positive is what I always try to be, but it is getting harder to do. I'm waffling between fear of making the jump and landing in a worse situation or simply not finding another option. Gee that's a lousy thing to end on, isn't it?

2012 will be a better year, I can start with that.

Now, meeting up would be a thrill beyond compare!

BBQ or Chinese are fine with me!

Someone always complains about a wedding, so we did what we wanted and didn't ask anybody's opinion.

Nobody complained about my wedding. It's not too late!

Ditto, No one complained about my wedding either and it was local for all her family and fly in for all of mine.

Of course you probably need to factor in that I was the groom not the bride or brides mother so I guess in theory there could have been no end of bitching I never heard about.....

Shearing a symphony sounds kind of kinky.
