    Drop enough weight to feel good teaching exercise classes. The last class I taught was when I was 5 months pregnant, and I miss teaching.

    1. Learn German (intermediate level).

    2. Be happier (smile more, not take life so seriously, enjoy the ride, live in the moment).

    3. Close at least one, large opportunity with my new venture.

    4. Less time in front of the computer (ironic, I know), more time enjoying nature (I live in the mountains). Winter: cross-country skiing at least once a week when I'm not traveling on business.

    I decided to set goals and not call them resolutions. Resolutions never seem to last.
    1. Run 14 races for 2014.
    2. Cook one new recipe a week
    3. Lose 3-5 pounds a month
    4. Have the courage to approach a guy that I'm interested in.

    For anyone that cares, No. 4 will without a doubt be the hardest. I have no balls/courage/moxy, nothing. So we shall see.

    1) @ work 1680x1050 *2 @home it varies from 1920x1024 to 5"

    2) continue working on my endurance to improve my running pace. I can complete 1 mile in just barely under 11 mins but I can't maintain that pace.

    3) complete a 5K in 33 mins or less

    4) continue working on my weaknesses which are, well, everything, strength, speed, agility, endurance,core and flexibility. q= which in turn I'd like to sign up and complete my 1st obstacle race

    5) weight loss stuff.. I've been too complacent with my monthly weight loss rate. I average between 2-5lbs a month. With the amount I still would like to drop, I know I can do better.

    1) follow through on the research ideas I have, write something up and try to get it one of them published in a reputable journal.
    2) devote the time to physical activity that is necessary to hike to the bottom of the Grand Canyon and back in mid April.
    3) add at least seven states to the list of ones in which I got laid.
    4) enjoy life more.
    5) stay out of jail
    6) find a job that I don't dread going to most days.

    I can see how you might note the resemblance, but really that is just me before I started eating healthy.

    Eating healthy really changed your complexion

    I'm sick of making resolutions then being depressed because I didn't resolute them. (is that a word?)

    All I know is that I'll be 35 this year. It's a BIG one! I want to fit into this little white dress I bought a while back. It's bandage style, short, sleeveless... It's pretty much an "I'm here!!" type of dress. I have to fit into it. Hopefully by my bday... (may 3rd) I have felt "hot" before but I want to just make the boys jizz their pants when they see me this yr.. Classy "resolution" eh??
    Class with a bit of slutty!!

    Good stuff... It would be funny to take a look at this topic back next year, and flail/humiliate the losers publicly.

    For me:
    - Try to work more efficiently

    That should free some time to:
    - Get more sleep (it's 2:43 am and I'm not sleeping as I'm writing that),
    - Start my own blog (or website),
    - Release 4 "finished" music tracks,
    - Play and finish Skyrim (would it fit in a year?),
    - Repay my debts

    So much to do, so little time.
