2010: A Change Odyssey

So, here I am 56 days into the new year, my self-proclaimed "Year of Change," and I'm playing hooky from work so I could sleep in, make brunch, and sit at my computer in my basketball shorts and Hanes undershirt while sipping a mug of decaf Sumatra. In all seriousness, I did wake up (when my alarm went off at 4:30 a.m., mind you) with the mother of all headaches, and promptly called the sick line at work to inform them of my absence. Six hours of sleep and three Tylenol Extra Strength fast-release capsules later I woke up feeling the need to do something productive with my day. Hence, starting this blog.

I attempted to start a blog a little over a year ago, and after getting 3 posts into it, the poor thing was abandoned somewhere out there on the interwebs, my words floating freely with no one to read them. Hell, I don't even know if anyone will be reading my blog this time around, but I feel like I need this outlet. This is the space where I'm going to chronicle my thoughts, ideas, rants, successes, failures, and questions. Since I am bound and determined to increase what I call my "happines quota" this year, I am going to write about my experiences and attempts in doing just that.

All in all, whether this blog garners a following or not, it is my intention to provide a somewhat humorous account of my odyssey through 2010. Will I succeed in making the changes I want to make? What predicaments will I get myself into along the way? How many licks will it take to get to the center of my theoretical Tootsie Pop? We'll just have to wait and see...
