6 commentsVague ambitions for 2010
I’ve never been a fan of new year’s resolutions, but there are things I hope to do in the new year, so here’s a list in no particular order:
- Run in a longer race than I’ve ever run before ( > 7 mi).
- Learn some new piano pieces.
- Brew beer successfully.
- Learn new recipes.
- Visit at least 1 country I haven’t been to before.
- Visit at least 2 U.S. cities I haven’t been to before (Portland? Santa Monica? LA?)
- Read 20 books, including some fiction.
- Learn a new programming language.
- Learn a new spoken language.
- Write something fun with HTML5 or other new web stuff.
Some of these are intentionally vague and not ambitious, but I think that’s fine.

Or, you could make a killer taboo tag team with the world reknown champion Bob “the dictator” Casey! That should be a goal.
