12.18.01 - 7:48 p.m. The January issue of InStyle has an entire section on "New Year, New You" and includes little lists of things you can do to change or complement your life. I found these two to be rather interesting:
Download an MP3 file and play it.
Read the stock pages and understand the basics of the market.
Find the North Star.
Use chopsticks - correctly.
Program your VCR to record your favorite shows.
Play poker - and bluff.
Bake a killer dessert.
Type without peeking.
Drive a stick shift.
Sew on a button.
Hear your favorite musician play live.
Drive cross-country with a lover.
Identify, then conquer, your biggest fear.
Spend an entire week by yourself.
Witness childbirth.
Place a bet in Vegas or Monte Carlo.
Make amends with someone you feel you have wronged.
Have your portrait painted - or your photo taken - by a pro.
So Cyndi and Graham are engaged, which is hardly surprising but still strange to finally happen after all these years. They've been dating since freshman year, which is like an eternity, and I feel like I've been there for so much of their relationship, but wow. It's just that Cyndi's actually getting married. I have to get some details - it seems so weird, she's Cyndi, after all. She likes kids even less than I do. And, I don't know, it seems like Cyndi always gets there before me. (Dan, please do not read anything into this. I'm happy with you, with us, I'm not implying anything. Really.) Throughout all my failed relationships, all through college, she was there being the girlfriend, getting lavaliered, having candlelights, all those things that seemed so important at the time. I really wonder what kind of ring he got her, since I'm sure it had to cost a fortune. Poor Grahamy. I wonder if he got it right on the first try.
