New Year's Resolutions

Welcome to the materialistic post that precedes the 12 days posts of the HOLY SH*TMAS countdown. Maybe next year my New Year's resolution will be to be less materialistic? This year, the prerequisites are the same as usual.

Exercise more!

Eat salads! (Notice how that doesn't say more salads. Just salads. Missin' from the diet. Because they're gross.)

Take my blood pressure daily!

Keep a food journal!

And so on. To say that they are half hearted resolutions would be giving them half a heart more than they are receiving.

My real resolution is that I am trying to STOP announcing to my husband that I have to pee whenever I get up to do just that. Commercial break? "I have to pee!" Returning from errands. "I have to pee!" Getting up from the computer? "I have to pee!"

Yeah. Point made. Every time I walk through a room, and he's in said room, it seems I need to tell him I am well hydrated and dealing with the repercussions of that. I know it's not a pretty lady thing to do. I know. I just can't seem to stop.

And we need to step up our dating game and date the pants off of 2011. This month, we're going to the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra for the first time. Ooooooooo. Ahhhhhhhh. We also need to really focus on more at-home dates. I have a hot river rock massage kit from the clearance section at Borders that has been on a shelf for over a year. That sh*t is gonna happen. Word.

We also still need to see Tron. Yay. No, really, I'm not rolling my eyes right now and giving myself a neck massage to get all the Tron-induced tension out of my head.

Okay, I totally am. Tron. I better get some nachos or something special for that viewing, Man. Something. A pretzel or something. Sour Patch Kids? What goes with "something bothers me about Olivia Wilde" and the realization that she's maybe why I stopped watching House? Twizzlers?

  1. Go with the Twizzlers definitely.
    As for having to pee, it's not like you're announcing the alternative. I think you should scratch that resolution. How 'bout this: drink more water!...ok, just made myself laugh, because I'm telling the girl who has to pee to drink more water...bear with me, I do get over myself...eventually.
