A fresh new start for a fresh new year

As my black-eyed peas (the actual food, not the band) are warming up in the microwave, I have to admit something:  I was absolutely HORRIBLE about blogging in 2011!  I entered two--count 'em, TWO!--blog posts last year!

So I've decided to turn over a new leaf.  I can't say that I'll blog every day, because let's be honest...to go from blogging twice a year to once a day is QUITE unrealistic.  But I shall do my darndest to at least think about blogging every day!  I keed!  I keed!

I AM going to try to stick with a project I've read a lot of people are doing, Project 365 (or 366, since this is a leap year).  It sounds like such a great way to document my year...I'm sure I'll persevere!  (Hmmm...insert sarcastic eye roll here).

But seriously, here's my entry for Day 1...and honestly, could I pick a better subject?  :)

So welcome, 2012.  Thanks for the great start...keep it coming!  And we'll just ignore that whole Mayan calendar thing.
