i am gonna make it...

...through this year if it kills me.

Yup. Ending the year in style (and angst). And yup. I do listen to music that's not the Mountain Goats. However, they go best in my internet journal, because they are my twenty-two-year-old Bright Eyes.

anyway.

New Years Resolutions for 2009

1. 2 Minute Showers:

This is definitely my least eco-friendly personal pleasure. I used to take naps on the floor of the bathroom with the water on, simply because I enjoyed the noise and the warmth. These days, I just stand there, usually for a about 20 minutes, thinking about not much at all.

With this single self-improvement party, I can deprive myself of something and save the environment at the same time. Next year: self-flagellation with a mulch-spreader.

2. Burn Zero Bridges:

I learned toward the end of 2008 that when you decide you don't want someone in your life, sometimes it means that you lose that person forever. Oops. Luckily, some folks (you know who you are) are just too patient for that nonsense. Anyway, I take the easy-way out too often, then the tantrum-fuel runs out, and I just end up feeling foolish. Enough!

Next year: I construct a second 35W bridge. With a mulch spreader.

Some things I will write you about in 2009!

"A woman talks about Buddha with her 6 year-old in Macy's!"

"Why 808s and Heartbreaks is not really that terrible, but Kanye is still no longer on top"

"Domestic Living"

"Probably Some Photos I've taken"

Good luck to you all. May this year take last year out behind the woodshed, give it a good talking to, and send it away with a Werther's and a better attitude.

Mulch Spreaders!,

I love you and miss you. You made me laugh - nay, guffaw - out loud with your self-flagellation plans.
