my new year’s resolutions December 30, 2005
-Be more organized
-Grocery shop more efficiently and prepare more meals at home
-Grow better garden this year
-Stop running into things in my car (or anyone else’s car)
-Play more board games
-Spend more time with a couple of folks I’ve neglected lately
-Avoid painful entanglements with tortured musicians (I remain open to the possibility of pleasant entanglements with non-tortured musicians 
)
- Complete several writing projects I’ve had on back burner, including something about the Clinton High School bombing, which is the great untold story of the civil rights movement
-Uncover, discover, discard
