Two decisions for 2010:
1) To become vegetarian. Not right now though - I've got fish in the house and I might as well eat it rather than throw it away. I was a vegetarian before - for a year and a half (ten years ago) - but I didn't do it right (too much cheese). I think I'm ready now. Down goes my carbon footprint. Up goes my experiments with different dishes and spices. I think it would be a great learning tool, and a distraction from impending unemployment.
2) Enroll in the Institute Français and take an intensive course in February, followed by more dispersed classes throughout the year. And start giving Brasilian Portuguese lessons to
wink_martindale,
blu_bear and
desayuno_ingles (or anyone else, really, who's interested.) Good teaching practice for me; good language to learn for you.
Enya, please sing to me throughout the night and don't let the Big Bad Insomnia catch me.
