New Years Resolutions

Since I wasn't posting at the New Year, I want to take this opportunity to share my New Year's Resolutions with you. I have to tell you that I don't really believe in resolutions b/c why is one day better than another to make a change? I also suck at keeping my resolutions. I think I was 0 for 7 in last years resolutions. But I might as well give it a try. Here are some New Year's Resolutions I know I can keep.

1. I resolve to make at least one comment per day that makes someone call me a jerk, an asshole or if I'm feeling especially sarcastic, a douchebag (like the girl at work called me when I made fun of her furry shoes.

2. I resolve to shock the hell out of people by actually showing up to their function and not being anti social every weekend.

3. I resolve to become addicted to some activity, be it blogging, Playstation, internet porn, or Comcast On Demand.

4. I resolve to look longingly at women and then not talk to them because of my self diagnosed Social Anxiety Disorder.

5. I resolve to make excuses for my behavior, rather than changing it (see # 4)

6. I resolve to mock whatever form of music is popular in '07, and secretly like some of it.

7. I resolve not to buy a CD again before I hear it. Thanks Nas for helping me out with this one. I really want to like Hip Hop is Dead, but it ain't working out for me.

8. I resolve to avoid phone calls from people that I used to be cool with and then call them a month or two later and act like nothing happened.

9. I resolve to drive around aimlessly while trying to decide what to get to eat, then get fed up and come home starving and eat oatmeal.

10. I resolve to start an ambitious project and then get bored or writer's block and just stop, while leaving people hanging.

Now here are some that I'm not so sure I can do, but I'm gonna try...

1. I resolve to have, in the words of everyone's favorite oversinging R&B diva, "No More Drama."

2. I resolve to make myself a priority and make sure the people around me treat me as such.

3. I resolve to start going out more or at the very least get a life outside the internet.

4. I resolve to get promoted within 6 months.

5. I resolve to take care of my health better this year. And yes that includes finally getting some new contact lenses

6. I resolve not to become involved in other people's mess. See # 1.

7. I resolve to stop being late. I'm actually doing a lot better at this one. I get to work like 45 minutes early b/c I'm trying to avoid traffic.

8. This is a repeat from last year, but I resolve to spend more time with my family. I'm doing pretty good at this one too so far.

9. I resolve to force myself to eat, even when I am not hungry. No more going two days without eating.

10. Finally, I resolve to continue my journey of personal growth, understanding that I don't know all the answers and I'm not always right. (It killed me to type that last sentence.)


So there are my resolutions... You got any?
