Did I mention I made some resolutions? Oops. I guess we can take “avoid being trendy” off the list.

Be that as it may, I thought I’d share. And here, in writing, is my bold claim: I literally guarantee I will make at least one of these come true. You can take that to the bank. Which one? Only time can tell.

• Publish a novel
• Watch every episode of Downton Abbey
• CrossFit every day
• Acquire one dozen “iMac with 5k Retina Display” and run them in parallel to update my blog
• Be honored as Volunteer of the Year
• Perform the song Uptown Funk on American Idol
• High dive into the Ik Kil Yucatán cenote
• Eat a donut

I’ll report back when I’ve accomplished one of these.
