It's a new year...

I have been trying to think of a 'direction' for this bad boy... thus far to no avail. I have decided one thing though; when it comes to creative people there are the ones who really create... and there's the ones that get words like 'poet' tattooed on their forearm and lose all ambition by their early twenties and spend their mundane days at the office Googling 'creativity'... Guess which one I am.

So, out of my wallowing... I was thinking perhaps a fitness/nutrition spin. Not that I have much to offer (I am nothing but a sponge) but perhaps if I record my "progress" it will offer motivation. My current fitness goal as been, in short, to run a mile and a half within 12 minutes. On the treadmills at the Y they have these military fitness tests in which you run and it gives you a score based on your time/gender/age. The airforce one is the easiest... a 1.5 mile run. So far my best time was about 16 minutes and I got a score of 30 out of 50. Doesn't sound like much, I know, but I've only done it three times (three days in a row, actually) and my time went from 20 to 18 to 16... so I feel like I am on track. I never would have imagined I'd be a runner.

I do need to update my tunes though... After my iPod got wiped (thanks, honey) I have had to scramble to get my playlists back. It just hasn't been the same.

Suggestions welcome... in all areas of my life.
