Blog more.
Now, I know what you're thinking: "But, Carrie, January is half over and this is your first post. Wouldn't that be a resolution fail?"
First, thanks for reading! Secondly: Shut up! I didn't even make this resolution until, like, 5 minutes ago, so I think I'm doing pretty well! I'm going to try really, really hard to keep this one. And you know what would help me out? Comments. Lots of comments so I can know that these words aren't just flowing from my heart out into the vast wasteland that is the blogosphere.
Again, I know what you're thinking: "Yeah, right, your words are flowing from your 'heart.' I knew they were coming from somewhere, but I was thinking it was somewhere a little bit lower." And again, I say, thanks for reading! Also, shut up some more.
Resolutions and I really don't mix all that well. I think that the only one I've ever really been able to keep was the one year I resolved to drink more water. And I totally did. I drank so much water, I had to move my desk into the bathroom. I did it for an entire year. And then I never drank water again (unless it also had vodka in it (and even then it wasn't really "water" so much as "tonic")).
And this year, I am resolving to blog more. And I probably even have some stuff to blog about. Like, for instance, my dog has cancer and will probably die soon. There's an entry right there. Also, Joel and I are going to Germany to visit our friends Jess and Sarah in May. That's got to be good for a couple of entries. Maybe even some pictures? Who knows? And there has got to be some stuff from the last, say, six months of not blogging that I could squeeze into a couple of entries. Easy peasy, right? Hopefully it will be as easy as I am finding my other resolution, which is to drink more wine. I am doing very well with that one, thanks very much.
Until next time, which will be soon! I promise! We got a new computer for Christmas and I can blog while Joel plays Assasin's Modern Mariokart II or something. It will be awesome. And, for those of you who like pictures, here's a picture of Lucy:
As requested, here is my comment. I'm so sorry to hear about Lucy. She never attempted to bite me, so there is a special place in my heart for the old girl.

Hey, glad you're back! And I like your resolution.
I'm so so sorry about Lucy. I like your portrait of her. Maybe you can hire someone to do an oil painting of the photo. Or a Warhol like pop art version of it. then you can hang it above your fireplace or pool table or something. pretty.
