Resolutions

I often find that when you make lofty New Year resolutions, it's only a matter of time when they fall through. So, I've decided to keep these resolutions small but attainable as I turn 30 this year.

--Keep exercising the rate that I'm at, and not be afraid to work a little harder.
--Do something different on vacation compared to what I normally do when I get home.
--Try to watch all the regular DVDs I own on my Blu-Ray player and flat screen TV.
--Read more books; so I can catch up with all the books I've bought in the last few years.
