I resolve to continue being awesome and such.

I am starting the new year out with a bang. Of course, it would have been too obvious to share my resolutions with you on the first of January, so I thought I would be fashionably late and post today. Tada! I think it's too easy to get off track and discouraged when one resolves to stick with a goal for a whole year, so I'd like to follow Kim's lead and make new (or continue previous) resolutions at the beginning of every month.

Here are January's resolutions.

1. Wash my face every night BEFORE I am a zombie of death and sleepiness and would rather just go to bed. I know this will minimize evil pimples of doom that tend to arise from the lack of doing so.

2. Get at least 30 minutes of activity 6 days of the week. Thanks, Elastic Waist fitness challeges, for making me realize I need this commitment.

3. Realize that Diet Pepsi is not an adequate substitute for drinking 64oz. of water each day and adjust my beverage consumption accordingly.

4. Don't stay in bed after 9am on weekends. This is a waste of life, sunshine, and crafting time.

5. Write a blog post every day in January (thanks to NaBloPoMo). I already wanted to become a more responsible blogger, and this is just the accountability I need to do so.

6. Say yes to eating breakfast out with my family, no matter how sleepy I am.

7. Read two books from my bookshelf this month. It may sound lame, but I love reading and yet I never seem to do it. So, here we go. Two books. Easy, right?

8. Work, work, work on my crafts for the Joss Whedon swap that I'm doing. What? I love Joss. And Buffy and Dr. Horrible. If you do too, please complete this quote: "The world is a mess, and I just need to _______." Favorite line ever.

That's all I've got for now. I'll update you on how I'm doing later.
