These were my New Year’s resolutions last year:
more kindness
less guilt about rest and relaxation
more words
quality family time
good work
grow more plants
I haven’t given too much thought to what I will try to resolve in the coming year but I imagine a few of those items will repeat themselves.
Sean and I are headed to Toronto tonight to celebrate the New Year with his brother and sister-in-law. I’m looking forward to the Second City show we’re going to see, my first time at anything like that. We’ve also got reservations at an Italian restaurant near the theater and I am so, so looking forward to good food. I love eating.
Last night some friends and I were talking New Years past and I told them about my adventures in Seoul, South Korea on NYE 2006. I was with four of my friends and we were drunk on Korean beer & wine. We bought Roman candles for the equivalent of $1 each and shot them off into the crowd. Some ash fell on me and burned a hole in my stocking; I still have a small scar from the burn.
It was probably my favorite New Years ever and I have vowed to spend another in Seoul before I die. Oh Korea and your public-safety-disasters–you stole my heart.
Many blessings and much love. See you in the New Year!
