New Years Resolutions...

Here's the deal...I hate New Years resolutions. I find them extremely over-sentimental and dumb. Personally, I really have a hard time understanding why in the world someone would wait until a certain date my make a change in their lives. Why not just wake up one morning, and say to yourself, "Today, I'm going to take the first step to becoming a healthy eater"
I think the whole idea of "Today is the day I begin my new life!" is so totally over-dramatic, and much too Hollywood for me. Most of the time, I do not make New Years resolutions...especially since I'm the kind of person who freaks out and makes all these long term goals for myself that are completely impossible to accomplish, and I end up driving myself batty trying to accomplish them. Therefore, I try really hard to be realistic and to take life one step at a time. New Years resolutions have potential to turn me into a nut-case.

In the past, when I have made New Years resolutions, they have been stupid joke resolutions. One year, my resolution was to accumulate at least 100 new CD's in the New Years. The next year, my New Years resolution was to learn to speak like a black girl and use my knew lingo as much as possible. One year I resolved to learn how to speak cat (I think I was pretty hopped up on sugar when I made this one)

So, true to tradition, I will share with you a few of the things I'VE resolved to do, in 2009.

1. Paint my toe-nails a different color for each 365 days in the good ol' year of 2009.
2. Learn all the words to Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen, and recite them daily at a predetermined time I will decide upon at a later time.
3. Become better at procrastinating (This one I might get around to later...)
4. Give an entire speech speaking in a British accent, and then take a survey to see how many people bought it.
5. Crap out a turd measuring in at at least seven inches in length, and three inches in diameter.


2008, you were kind of a jerk, but that's ok, because I loved you all the same. Here's to '09!!
