New Year Resolutions

Tuesday, January 6th, 2004

Okay, okay. For those of you who’ve been waiting, none of these are a surprise. They’re the same revolving things that I always try to do every year, month, and week.

Is everyone like this? Do we all have these same revolving thoughts that choose the most inopportune times to rear their ugly heads? - When trying to fall asleep, driving to work, or in the middle of the best coffee buzz you’ve had all week.

Those Monday morning buzzes are best because an entire weekend of recuperation gives flight to the Monday morning. . . well flight, I guess.
:/

The worst ones are when you’re trying to fall asleep. It seems, in my case, it’s always after I start getting mad at myself for not falling asleep yet. It’s like my brain goes, “Hmm.. let’s change the topic… what else are you mad about? I’ve got a great idea! Let’s rehash you’re shortcomings! Yeay!”

Speaking of which, I’m watching the Average Joe Hawaii premiere last night and see quirks that I too have. Very unnerving. Which leads to Resolution Numbero Uno: Stop watching Geek Tragedies on television. :/

Ever notice that people never follow up numero uno with numero dos? Is dos so bad that it must be shunned? Example:

“Peter, I need you to work on the Bailey Project - it’s Numero Uno right now.”

You never hear: “Hey have you seen those OperaBabes? Talk about a Dos I’d like to. . . (insert immature male reference to food or sex.)

Why Is it only food and sex? Why not something like.. oh, I dunno… automotive repair references? I offer as examples:

-I’d filter THAT oil.
-If I had a Catalytic Converter like that to come home to every night..
-Checkout the tail lights!
-That MUST be leather interior.. Dude. Gross.
-I guess the objects in the rear view mirror are…
-Nice windshield wipers.
-Check out those turning signals!

Resolution Numero Dos: Ejimacashin tuh lern something.

Resolution C: Watch morer Jeopardy (see the won above)

Resolucion IV: Finish the book so that I can go on with my life without THAT black cloud over my head.

Uh.. 5: Not be bothered by the little insignificances of life, or basically the stuff that currently eats at me.

4 apples + 2 apples: Fix the rear view mirror on Gabby, my car.

PQRS: Quiet and more introspective cuz Chicks Dig It.

Sideways Infinity: Quit smolking. (not a typo.. how I think it should be spelled.

Forty-blankers: Less coffee.

That’s it..
