Who made resolutions this year? Does no one learn?
My opinion is that if you would really like to AVOID having something happen in the New Year, turn it into a resolution. That ways you ensure that you will, indeed, not get that task accomplished.
My New Years Resolutions (keeping the above disclaimer in mind)
**These are, of course, made up on the spot as I quite clearly despise any form of real resolution, why do you need the changing of the year as a catalyst to make change in your life? NOW is the only time to do it!
a. I will swim with sharks and play with seaweed this year. *check – my two basal fears covered*
b. I will contract an infectious disease this year, break a bone, have an organ removed, have headaches all the time, get ulcers, CHD, influenza, all viral infections, have a bone marrow transplant, get pink eye, worms (ew), acid reflux, get into a car accident and cancer this year. . *check check – my health is in order*
c. I will go bankrupt this year. *Finances – check*
d. I will lose all of my friends and family members “Network – check*
Ok, this is getting a little morid but you get the idea. My point? No one ever does their resolutions!
