New Year's Resolution

Ever since Hanukkah I have been reading like a mad woman. Part of this is due to the gifts I received from my boyfriend’s Mother and her boyfriend. They sent me 8 books, one for each night of Hanukkah and they were all books that I wanted to read which is probably why I have already finished 3 of them and am working on a forth right now. Also, the fact that I was on vacation for a week spending most meals by myself (since Jedi was working), I would read of listen to books on tape while watching passers-by. Since New Year’s I have already completed 2 books on tape. However, you may all have noticed that I have been incredibly remiss in writing about any of them or writing about anything at all lately. I’d say that I made a New Year’s resolution to write a bit each week, but that wouldn’t happen. I did make a resolution though. I want to try and travel outside the United States this calendar year, even if it means Canada or Mexico.

I also made a promise to myself to try and stop one of my myriad of bad habits. During work meetings and serious conversations and…well, a lot of time when I am concentrating I put my fingers in my hair and twirl it around and around and around. My boss has commented on it several times and so has Jedi. I really need to work on getting my hands out of my hair. Not only is it distracting to people, but it leaves my curly frizzy hair in Rastafarian-like dreadlocks. Gotta work on cutting this out of my repertoire of moves.
