resolutions - fail or win?

with a new year comes thinking...reflection on the past year, resolutions for the new one. well I've been doing just that. hi brain, I know I left you out of conversations, work and decision-making last year, but 2010 is going to be different.

for instance, I've resolved to blog more. you might disagree, but I'm putting a lot of thought into this blog post.

I'm also trying to conquer my nighttime snacking ritual (4 nights going strong).


well lookyhere, not only am I blogging, here are me and Biff having our bedtime snacks before we go to bed, like responsible and healthy adults.


all these downer forces out there are trying to discourage resolutions, saying they are pointless and that they just make you feel bad about yourself when you fail -- I'm not denying these truths. but isn't the glass half full for those 4 nights that you don't wake up in the middle of the night and eat leftover spaghetti?


as I let my brain mull this one over, I'm reminded of one of my favorite proverbs: one person's Epic FAIL is another person's WIN.

I'm so over 2008

2008 wasn't my fave.

picture message I just got from Emily:

with text: in nebraska! i miss you shwee.

Emily, I miss you terribly :(

one high note was the addition of Chip Munk.

oh and those glasses.

I did read more books last year which was my New Year's resolution. this year: stand up straight, read even more books. the last book I read was Breakfast at Tiffany's. then watching the movie I noticed Paul (Fred) looks just like Renny Kodgers.


uncanny.

last night I bid '08 farewell and good riddance at the Milky Way. 'twas a good time. toward the end of the night I was in the bathroom and noticed this in the stall next to me:

drunk girl throwing up barefoot next to her Notebook Chucks that Tim designed...a few minutes later I saw her back at the bar (sneakers on) resuming her party.

I will resume my party on Saturday night and so should you.

happy HOLIDAY!
