To start a half-way decent thread that is more than one page in length !!! j/k

My new years Res:
[*]To slowly quit drinking coffee and drink more green tea. Last week, i switched to decaf.. and will continue that for a while.. then i will cut down on consumption. Chance s are i will keep this resolution
[*]Visit my young nieces/nephews in far-away states more often, so they remember me. I hate losing touch.. which is what happened. Probably won't keep, but hope i do
[*]Economize more on the everyday things (shopping at walgreens, using coupons, bringin my own coffee/lunch, cancel HBO, boycott Blockbuster ($4.50 per dvd is highway robbery!)) Probably will try harder to keep

Okay...my serious resolution (like I ever wear pants anyway) is to upgrade my road racing (cycling) license from Cat 3 to Cat 2. I'm pretty sure I can do it, I just need to buckle down and do some serious training this year.


FYI- the categories in cycling are 1-5 (1=highest, 5=n00b). You move to the next highest Cat by placing top 6 in a USCF event (7point for 1st, 5 for 2nd, down to 1 point for 6th). When you have X number of points (I'll need 30 over 12 months) you can petition your rep to cat up.

The only downside is that the 2s usually race against 1s and pros so I could conceivably end up racing against Lance Armstrong's teammates next year if I manage to cat up (USPS does compete in many domestic races and a few of his teammates live up the road in Greenville, SC).

Man, I've only shat in a non-home toilet twice in my life. Both times it was a "OMG MY ASS IS EXPLODING" emergency and both times were utterly disgusting. Your resolution is going to decrease your quality of life.
