New Year's Resolutions

Okay, I know it we may already be 8 months into 2004, but I've decided to make some new year's resolutions...and this time actually follow through.

1) Lose 15-20 lbs. Basically, I want to be hot. I don't really think I have the ability to be "hot" persay, maybe I should just go for cute, but I'm going to give it a try. Maybe I'll go for cute but slutty...or not. I just want to make out w/ someone and end this drought of sexual inactivity.

2) Be more active. This includes actually doing some form of exercise, which will help me achieve resolution #1. I also need to do more stuff during the week rather than just sitting on the couch all the time. I could go see more shows...or go to coffee shop and read (b/c I can't read at home...not w/ the TV being right there)...or I could just meet up w/ friends and hang out. My options are virtually limitless. Unless it involves money.

3) Become less uptight. I worry about too much, escpecially things I can't control or things I refuse to do anything about. One example: I grab the handle in the car too tightly when Ashley turns corners (note: she's not a bad driver...probably one of the best I know) Yeah. So this resolution, I'm going to hold to "best efforts". B/c in the past, I've always found it difficult to change inherent parts of my personality.

4) Become more motivated re: my career/future. I can't help but laughing at my use of the term "career". I guess I just don't feel like I have one. I have a job. But not a career. Seriously though...I need to do something about this. No more slacking.

Weekend recap: Made scallops and salmon w/ some friends on Friday (thanks to Alisa), was home by 11:30 b/c I was tired but still ended up staying up until 2:30 talking to Ashley (about what, I can't recall). Saturday morning joined Lisa, Alisa, and others for a yard sale where I made a whopping $30 which I split w/ Ashley b/c it was mostly her stuff. That night went to bbq at Craig's where I consummed much liquor but still could not wake my a** up. Then I got a headache. But I rallied on and we went to Jumbo's Clown Room where I had my first stripper experience. Nice. Don't really know what more I can say about that....except, I think there should be more of a market for nipple decorations in everyday life.

Now for the too much information portion of the post: I'm menstrual right now and everything is making me cry. I cried thinking about this movie I saw years ago called "The Cure" about a little boy who has AIDS. Sure, it's sad/heartbreaking/depressing...but I cried at the thought of it, not from actually watching the movie.

Time to be responsible and get to work.

p.s. I'm a little depressed that "Six Feet Under" has ended. And by little depressed, I mean I no longer have the will to live. As I've said before, I really like my TV shows.
