"Disappointment is a function of expectation." Joy Browne PhD

Have you ever guilted yourself into an unrealistic expectation? Was a commitment made, not kept?

Keep a New Year's Resolution only in mind? Or jot it down? Tuck it into your device?

By their nature New Year's Resolutions are not trivial (put the cap back on the toothpaste). If they were, it may be quicker to do so than to resolve to do so.

So Summer is gone, Winter drawers on. We've tallied another year, and some of us have things in need of our attention. A personal annual "dead letter" bin for 3rd Millennium living?

Got one to change the world? Spread the word.

Or an unconventional constructive approach to what is commonly a bedevilment?

And what of those things we omit from the list? Want to / hope to finally get to Albuquerque? Never seen a rattlesnake museum before?

4 full days / ET before 2026. If you gotta git 'er dun before Thursday, skip the decaf.

Besides the Rattlesnake Museum, Albuquerque has all sorts of interesting stuff.
The Rattlesnake Museum is in Old Town, which around Rio Grand Blvd and north of Central.
But west of that a half mile on Central, is the bio-park.
There are many museums, planetariums, bop-park, zoo exhibits, heritage farm, etc., there, including a Bugarium, with things like tarantulas.
But since New Mexico is a poor state, don't expect too much.
The main thing I enjoy with Old Town is the buildings have been preserved for a century.
