operation atlanta appreciation

Back in January I started to make a list of things to change, to improve, to begin — under the guise of "new years resolutions" — but suddenly it's March. Plus, a list like that would inevitably hang over my head like a precarious guillotine blade, causing me more stress than it's worth.

So instead, I'm making one fat resolution, and declaring 2009 a "Year of Firsts."

I've lived within ATL city limits for over two years now, but I don't get out a whole lot. Call me a creature of habit, call me a hermit, but I can very easily keep myself busy just doing things around the house, and I'm perfectly content to go to my same favorite restaurants time and time again, ordering the same things.

And so begins what I've dubbed "Operation Atlanta Appreciation." It is a simple premise: every week I try to do at least one new thing, or go to one new place around the city. I'm sure some of these outings will be exciting, and some will be less than noteworthy. Either way, I'll be sure to write about them and keep you informed.
