• Get into shape. It seems like I do have an equilibrium weight/shape, but the current one isn't it. A little more exercising and cooking for myself (which I loved to do before the new job in the city) will do wonders.
• Read more. Say, half an hour a day from 10:30pm to 11:30pm, right before bed (except on Wednesdays and weekends, though weekends should also have a designated half hour). I used to read all the time, getting caught up in books. Now knitting has taken over, but I still do like books. Speaking of...
• Knit more for myself. Yes, I have gift knitting to do still. But at some point (and possibly soon), I will have gifted all the small things and will have to either be more creative and more committed. But I'd rather make things for me! After all, knitting is supposed to be relaxing, and gift knitting doesn't seem to fit this goal.
• Be more dedicated to my job. I feel like I'm not living up to my potential. I can be better, I want to be better, and I think it all starts with getting a better night's sleep. The insomniac in me is protesting, but we'll see how it goes.

That's really it. I have other things I want to do, but making them resolutions is silly, because it's setting unrealistic expectations. So these 4 are enought, I think, and at least manageable for, ohh, say, January. :-)

There would have been a picture tonight, but that's before I was out until 10pm. Since today is Tuesday (so confusing), perhaps on Thursday (tomorrow is not going to happen) I will post more about Chicago, complete with photographs.
