New Year's Resolutions

This time around my New Year's Resolution is to watch more TV. Seriously. Enough with all this self-improvement crappus. Admittedly, I was going to resolve not to get any more colds. That would definitely have fallen under the self-improvement category. But I decided that would be impractical.

So we're going with the TV business instead.

Which reminds me of a great quote I saw the other day: "If you resolve to give up smoking, drinking, and loving, you don't actually live longer; it just seems longer."

And then there are those of us who are constantly tripping over our own faults, and who will take any opportunity - hokey, socially prescribed new year's tradition or otherwise - to add another handful of habits to either break or make to the already endless list that we wear wrapped about us like a kind of psychological hair-shirt.

Hear Hear! Or is it here here? Long live those who are already improved! I don't make resolutions, but I am doing 15 (girl) push-ups a day, a 2 minute commitment that seems down right doable. Send me your gym dues and you too can be fit as a fiddle and never leave your home!

I had resolved to stop being such an elitist asshole, but then I remembered how special I am.
