So, I’ve been doing some thinking as I am wont to do while walking from point A to point B, taking the wide world in through my hyper-sensitive eyes, and I’ve come up with a New Year’s Resolution.
Declaration of Intent: I am creating a charity budget. I have discovered that I earn more money than approximately 70% of Americans, yet I give considerably less than 1% of my annual income to charitable organizations. I have decided to amend this injustice, and in 2012 I will create a budget specifically for donating no less than 1.5% of my annual income to charity.
It just seems right.
My other resolution is to dress up in a suit more often and sing for Meredith.
In other news, Meredith and I went to The Quiet Storm, Live last night and it was delightful. On the bill for that night with my haphazard rankings on a scale of 1 to 10 (1 being atrocious, 10 being “OMFG, that’s incredible!”): Jon B (2), H-Town (7), Surface (6), The Force MDs (3), Al B Sure (3), and Brian McKnight (5,000). Seriously, if you get the opportunity to see Brian McKnight anytime (hehe) soon, do it! His show is incredibly intimate and a salute to fine music, all around. And he’s funny, too.
Christmas is next Saturday and I just have one question for the blogging community: What the fuck should I get for my wife? (and don’t say Keytar; I’m already considering that)
And the forum is open…
