My New Year's Resolutions:

1) I will exercise every day. (Even if it's just my physical therapy knee exercises and stretches.)

2) I will write every day. The idea here is to keep me on track with my class papers and newspaper stuff, and also, hopefully, fiction.

However, I'm not even going to try to hold myself to these until I get back to school, where the computer is all my own and going to the gym two minutes' walk from my room is included in tuition.

How's that for a good excuse for putting off self-improvement? :)
