Resolutions, Anyone?

New Yorker cartoon [1]

Congratulations on making it through another holiday season. We did it!! Now that it’s 2016, there’s a proliferation of ads for diet aids and exercise equipment, and the media is filled with stories about New Year’s resolutions, whether they work and why. Through the years, I’ve made assorted pledges about online dating, drinking more water and worrying less. But this time, the thought of conjuring up a new commitment to something I wasn’t already doing didn’t even cross my mind. How about you?
