Happy New Year! I beat you to it by over nine hours, but I was dead asleep. No parties, no celebrations (at least that I was aware of), no fireworks. Today was business as usual, which actually suited most people just fine. One more day closer to going home. Celebrating the New Year just reminds you that of what you’re missing.
But, that is no reason to skip making resolutions. I have come up with a few that I hope will be easy to keep:
1. Spend more time with my family. (I should beat 2009 right around July 1)
2. Spend less time on military duty. (Due to existing circumstances, this ties in directly with number 1.)
3. Watch more football!
4. Spend more money!
(See how easy this is!)
5. Try not to gain back any weight. (This could be a tough one.)
6. Listen to the radio and catch up on the latest music.
7. Go out to dinner. (Pizza first; Five Guys next.)
8. Drink a beer. (Or two)
9. Don’t work too hard. (Sorry Rob and Ahmad.)
And my favorite:
10. WATCH MORE TELEVISION!!!
(There are other things of a more personal nature that I also resolve to do, but that is not for this particular forum.)
So, my friends, please enjoy the New Year and time with family and friends. I’m down to a few weeks now and I’m looking forward to seeing you all when I get back.
Take care,
-Dave
