Damn man.  Beat me to it.

Okay, I resolve to gain another 20 pounds, live a sedentary life in front of a computer monitor all day, and spend many times more than I earn in some vain search for a meaningful life.

Hell, why should I choose resolutions I have no intention of keeping?

I haven't made any in years, since I never stuck with them after January...but this year...I think I'm going to challenge myself...

1. Lose weight/Eat healthier
2. Declutter my house and office (and keep it that way)
3. Exercise regularly
4. Try to practice more diplomacy at work (PC)
5. Volunteer somewhere (preferably a school)


What about you??

I want to quit smoking
Get a new and better paying job :tongue: (Maybe it will happen in 3 years)

Throw more shoes at politicians. I'm starting a shoe drive this coming year. Got a P.O.box just for the occasion.

Oh, and learn Japanese.

Interesting question.

Perhaps some experimentation is in order.

I might try adding some brandied double cream to the wallow and see if it yields me any deeper meaning.

Well, with my previous car, the window stopped rolling down.  So I stopped drive thru, because I didn't want to be the person that had to open the door to get my food.  Then I got a new car.  With a window that works.

I plan to not eat food from any place that has a drive thru window.

I wonder if Silver Orchid is going to get that Anarchy tattoo converted into a Goldwater one this year?

Depends, show me what a Goldwater tattoo looks likes. I am actually planning on covering it up with a cross tat I got picked out.

I have no problem with ones that deliver.  More of a cash outlay consideration then.   :-)

Plus, I have a pretty nifty mom and pop pizza restaurant nearby that I just got to deliver to me.

I must be thinking of another Silver Orchid from a few years ago. That silver orchid was going to change the Anarchy A into the element shorthand of Au for gold. Toss in H20 and you have Goldwater.

Don't believe him, people.  He will not make any meaningful resolutions, nor will he keep the above, unmeaningful, ones.  He has better things to do, and his family, I and our child, won't let him!  :tongue:

I resolve to continue to not smoke. After a number of unsuccessful attempts over the last couple of years, I finally quit about six weeks ago. I woke up in the middle of the night, coughing, hyperventilating, unable to catch my breath, and certain that I was not going to survive the night. That pretty much did it. Now if I have a craving, I just remember that night. The craving goes right away.

Wow!  That ought to be a good motivator.  Keep the faith - I've been off the stuff for nine months now.
