It's me, Kellen. New Year's Resolutions are largely silly, I think, but fuck it. I'm game.
IN 2011 I RESOLVE TO:
1) Start saying "twenty eleven" instead of "two thousand eleven." You'll see. We'll all be doing it soon.
2) Be far, far more responsible with money. This is not saying much.
3) Read as much as I can.
4) Write a lot of songs.
5) Get wicked good grades.
6) Act my age. And by that I mean act like I'm 25 and not 40. No staying in to watch five episodes of The Event, which isn't even that good a fucking television show.
7) Ride my bike more, and try out this bike polo thing.
8) Be more honest when I think things are stupid, phony, or wrong. Stop pretending to be in to everything just to avoid conflict.
9) Get a better job. This is not saying much, again.
10) Work toward an actual god damned wedding happening at some point.
Get ready to die, TWENTY ELEVEN!!!

ReplyDeletecan i join you on the better job and more responsible with money goals?
and i am right there with you on the 2011 shit. sister i started that in 2010. where have you been?
if you like reading short plays- it's a really fun way to start reading more.. but that is just the theatre nerd in me! :D I've found it helps me.. I just got done reading Fat Men In Skirts by Nicky Silver... IT WAS HILARIOUS and so thought provoking.. and fucked up! (if you're looking for a good one)
ReplyDeletelove, polly
Kel, the funniest New Year's resolution I ever heard was one Grandpa made not that long ago. We were all at Grandma and Grandpas in the family room and he said, "I have to try to be more positive this year." About seven seconds later, he looked me straight in the eye and said, "Ah, that's never gonna last" and we both just laughed really, really hard. It was way too good. I'm really glad I have you in my life (for many reasons, obviously), but in a special way because you make me laugh the way he did and not too many people do that!
