- getting my first hate mail comment because it means that it’s not just my friends that read my blog anymore!
- the ridiculous number of page views I’ve had today.
- joining twitter because a woman who wrote an article made me laugh out loud several times and I needed to follow her immediately.
- sales, and the boots that come home with me because of them.
- getting to wish a friend “Happy Birthday!” in a grace in small things post.

and other lofty goals.
I’m not usually one for new year’s resolutions, but I feel as if the start of a new decade deserves a better me, so here it goes…
I will take better care of my feet because without them, there wouldn’t be any ridiculous dance parties in my living room and my neighbours wouldn’t have anything to watch.
I will allow my friends to cook for me as often as they want.
I will not feel bad for destroying my apartment during elaborate craft projects.
I will nap as much as possible.
I will not stamp my feet like a four year old when slow tourists get in my way.
I will embrace my inner sexy librarian.
I will flirt with many men, and actually mean it sometimes.
I will do everything in my power not to kill my fish.
I will stop leaving the salt shaker in random places around the apartment.
I will remember to phone my mother.
I will not let the pigeons win.

- the asinine conversations of strangers that keep me amused when I have forgotten to bring something to read on the plane.
- camera puppets and get rich schemes.
- remembering that I live by the ocean.
- cream puff towers.
- ringing in the new year with people I love, respect and appreciate.
Happy New Year! May 2010 bring you happiness and much grace in all the small things.
Love,
Violet
