New Thing

A few weeks ago I discovered the blog of Marc Acito. His claim to fame is that he does one new thing each day. It doesn't have to be big, just something new to alter his perspective. That got me thinking. I used to do a LOT of things just to be able to say I'd done it. Recently I've fallen out of the habit. How is it that the thing we crave--love, family, stability--also is the exact things that rob us of our flair, our flavor for life? 

Time to jump start my ass out of the rut I've landed in, methinks. Thanks to the inspiration of Marc Acito, I'm going to try a social experiment of my own. I will chronicle my experiences here for the time being.
