Sundays are my Secondhand day. I'm basically too lazy to think of anything new to say so I re-post a "vintage" entry.
If you aren't in the mood for repeats, please feel free to change the channel.
"THIS YEAR, I RESOLVE TO..."
Original Post Date, January 1, 2010
I'm no different than the next guy.
I make my New Year's resolutions and stick to them for approximately 7.5 days. At that point, I break one and that creates a snowball effect, resulting in feelings of defeat all over again.
Maybe my resolutions are too lofty. By setting the bar too high, it's inevitable that I won't attain them, right?
This year I've decided to be realistic in my resolutions and looking over the list, I'm confident that this will be the year that I will finally stick to them.
1) Spend too much time watching TV
2) Curse like a sailor
3) Stay in a job that doesn't fulfill me because, hey, it's a paycheck.
4) Have meaningless sex whenever the mood hits me
4) Gain more weight and continue to bitch about it
5) Eat excessive amounts of candy daily
6) Have a pity party for myself at least once a month
7) Take a nap when the urge to do physical activity overcomes me
Wish me luck!
UPDATE: December, 2010
I'm proud to say that I've achieved 6 out of 7 of my resolutions! I think you can all guess which one I fell short on.
Sounds like a plan to me!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you do this as I'm new to your site! :) I think these were my resolutions last year, too! :D I don't really do resolutions... I tend to "start over" whenever I feel like it.. on the minute, the hour, the day.. whenever needed. LOL!
ReplyDeleteWell, since you've got this resolution thing nailed, here's another tidbit for later in the year. Give up Lent for Lent. Oh, and drop me a note, I'll help you finish that list before the end of the year. I hate to see people fall short of their goals.
ReplyDeleteI can totally help with the first number four...
