Everyday it's the same. We accept things because we don't have the push to change things. There's little motivation in what we are doing and even less at times to change it. Now we've decided that we will finally take a step as a small group in changing bit by bit the things we do everyday. First up will be to quit smoking on New Years Eve. 2012 will bring at least one good thing. More money in our pockets. Changing our lives is never easy. It starts this week although Saturday morning is probably a better start. A football match at 9am in the morning with lots of journalists from a newspaper I collaborate with a write a football opinion article for will be a good beginning. Before that I'll have a few beers with my ex students tonight and try convince them to go to Dublin next May. Old habits die hard. But before I go there I'm gonna walk around here and give a few people a high five, across the back, with a chair.
