Experiences, Not Things

That's my new year's resolution.

I have stuff. I don't need anymore stuff. Since I just paid off all my credit cards by taking out a low interest loan, I'm limiting any credit card purchases to my AMEX, which forces you to pay it all off by the end of the month.

My problem is that I like stuff, but I'm not going to scrapbook my new philosophy cleanser or a cute sweater. I am craving experiences.

After speaking to a friend about this, she suggested doing something new once a month. I've started compiling the list - horseback riding in Daly City, hiking around Mount Tam, kayaking in Monterey Bay, whale watching/glacier hopping in Alaska, getting fish tacos in Half Moon Bay, etc... How fun is this?

Oh, I have to add taking my vitamins as part of my resolution because the beau flips out that I don't regularly take mine.

So here's to new experiences in 2008!
