You shouldn’t need a new year to make promises to yourself that you will not keep. You can do that any day of the year! So instead of playing “lies Jess told herself,” let’s set some goals!
Out with the old //
- Update my iPod more often
- Otherwise I honestly don’t have any bad habits to break (seriously: I quit smoking in ‘06, found my dream job in ‘09, start working out in ‘11. All my other vices are perfectly acceptable.)
In with the new //
- Become a certified Cicerone (beer sommelier)
- Brew my own beer
- Learn basic bicycle repair
- Ride my bike to Kenosha
- Ride my bike to Three Floyd’s
- Host a vegan beer dinner
- Perfect my seitan recipe
Continue //
- Bike commuting (3 seasons)
- Reading two books a month
- Cooking vegan at home
- Drinking good beer with good people
Piece of cake, right?
