Month: January 2013

No, I’m not buying one. (Yet)

I’m just marking the 5-year anniversary since I let one put me in the hospital for 5 days, and then out of my head for another 2 months.

What a trip that was!

It’s been a year, but it feels like just yesterday.

We miss you, Mom.

Maybe it’s a function of all the unmet goals I’ve written about here on JavaJunkee.com in the past, but I’m not a big fan of New Year’s resolutions. So I’m not making any.

What I will do, though, is just mention some of the things I made progress on in 2012 and agree that, yes, these are trends I would like to see continued forward in 2013:

• Continue training for LA Marathon.
• Meditate regularly.
• Journal regularly.
• Don’t eat like I hate myself.
• Finish using the Rosetta Stone software for Japanese which was actually an easy language to learn, that I’ve owned for over 4 years.

Those are just a few gifts I would like to give myself. I ran a 10K in 1:02:44.54 in early December, and I’m signed up for another 10K on the 10th of February. I’d like to finish it in under an hour. I’m down about 20-25 lbs since I signed up for the marathon, and while weight loss isn’t my primary goal, it’s definitely a nice side effect.

I’m looking at the likelihood of completing a real estate purchase early this year. More will be revealed.
