A word of advice: never make an "I will not..." resolution. Resolutions of restraint are fragile things. Even resolutions such as "I will quit smoking" can be translated to "I will not smoke." "I will lose weight" becomes "I will not weigh as much later as I do now." All it takes is one little temptation to send 298 days of dedication tumbling into defeat. If it can be overturn, these resolutions will forever be in jeopardy.

My single resolution for 2010 was met, and I can never reverse its status. And it was?

"I will take a shot of mezcal with the worm."

Did I walk the easy road? Yes. Was it a fun one? Believe it.

Do it right this year, resolution-bound.
