12 by 2012 recap

The list:

1. Finish my puzzle "painting"
2. Make some gymnastics art (way open to interpretation on my end)
No, I actually did gymnastics. I went to my old gym that I hadn't been to in THIRTEEN years and made my art right then and there. It totally counts.
3. Get to work on time every day for a week straight
I got this done the week right after I wrote this list. It was a one-shot deal.
4. Bake a pie
I baked two pies, thank you. Both were extremely delicious.
5. Tint my new car window
6. Try five new restaurants
Oddfellows, Local 360, Roxy's Back Door (lamb burger of my life!), Il Terrazzo Carmine (thanks, boss), Staple & Fancy
7. Make a stuffed whale for my niece, Evie
8. Clean out my closet
9. Finish a solid draft of my typeface, Lolita
10. Upholster my couch
11. Create a signature cocktail
It's not my true signature drink, but it will suffice until I find the real deal: Whiskey, Triple Sec, and lemon juice. It's about the most delicious thing you've ever tasted, even if you don't like Whiskey (fact).
12. Climb a 5.12a
I actually did a 5.12b. WHAT.

In my defense, several delightfully unexpected things came up that consumed a lot of my time. Namely, the InStyle mention and the West Elm + Etsy show. So I feel like I get a little leeway in that respect. 8 for 12 ain't bad.
