Original thoughts? Nope.

An idea borrowed shamelessly from Catherine, here are the religions that most closely (according to the quiz) match my beliefs. I don't see a listing for The First Self-Righteous Church of Bullhead, though.
1. Unitarian Universalism (100%)
2. Liberal Quakers (90%)
3. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (90%)
4. Theravada Buddhism (84%)
5. Secular Humanism (79%)
6. Neo-Pagan (74%)
7. Bahá'í Faith (66%)
8. Mahayana Buddhism (64%)
9. New Age (64%)
10. Nontheist (56%)
11. Taoism (54%)
12. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (53%)
13. Reform Judaism (51%)
14. Jainism (51%)
15. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (50%)
16. Orthodox Quaker (48%)
17. New Thought (46%)
18. Sikhism (42%)
19. Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (42%)

27. Roman Catholic (14%)

Aaaaand, in more shamelessly easy lemming style... here's my entry for DD's request.

Wish I could make the face a little more stout without looking like a transvestite. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Anhedonia

If one word can sum up 2006 for me, this would be it.
Anhedonic. The opposite of hedonistic.
For the upcoming 365 days, I resolve to:
Continue breathing, whether I want to or not.
Try to quit smoking, and subsequently not kill anyone.
Exercise; I hear endorphins are fashionable.
Return to crafting, I care not what medium my inspiration takes.
Get over this anticipatory empty-nest syndrome. Will elaborate more on this later.
Read more. Something in a non-textbook kind of literature would be great.
Try to find an acceptable balance of sleep somewhere between my usual 5 hours and the 12+ I crave.
Walk the dog(s).
Clean my house.
Keep it that way.

I wish for each of you a tremendously satisfying year ahead.
