New Years Resolutions Friday Five

Well it had to be didn't it: love them or hate them, I bet you've been asked about New Year resolutions. So with no more fuss here is this weeks Friday Five:

1. Do you make New Year resolutions?
No. One year I made a resolution never to make resolutions and I have kept that resolution ever since! Bet I am not the only one [smile].

2. Is this something you take seriously, or is it a bit of fun?
Sheer comedic relief --although I don't laugh at folks who do take the making of resolutions seriously. And I did indeed eat my black-eyed peas on New Year's for good luck --did you?

3. Share one goal for 2008.
To be working and living in a way that is more financially sustainable for me. [That means steadily whittling down my debt and being more gainfully employed. It's a long story --maybe I will write about that sometime.]

4. Money is no barrier, share one wild/ impossible dream for 2008
I'd settle for starting school much earlier than I am anticipating. But if I want to get really wild, I'd like to travel with Anthony Bourdain as his sidekick for a year ... No Reservations, indeed! DH likes him and his show also. D'you think it would count as a sabbatical?

5. Someone wants to publish a story of your year in 2008, what will the title of that book be?
Oh my. {That's NOT the title} What a fun and creative question. How about:

Eucatastrophe: The Joy of Midlife Crisis. Subtitled: Coping With Change With Grace, Humor and Joie De Vivre.
