dirty words

I have something to confess:

I'm really bad at keeping up with livejournal sometimes. keenween may have mentioned something when we met in person about how he started to worry something was wrong when he hadn't seen any Dancing With the Stars crack posts on his friends feed lately. UNDERSTANDABLE!

( I have been doing things but none of them are very interesting! )

I think I just figured out how the 60s happened, you guys.

In a few days you're going to be like Jiiiiiminy Christmas, we know it's 2012, we can all put the date on our checks correctly on the first try, stop using your silly graphic. Until then:

Yay! After 2010's Do 100 New Things resolution (success!) and 2011's "Year of 11" lists (um... partial credit), I was really excited to come up with a fun challenge "resolution" for this year! I mean, there are actual things I really would like / need to improve in my life, but I don't want to start a year off with a drudge list of un-fun things to do for an entire year.

(Okay, I'm doing that for my work resolution, which is "keep my desk clean so everyone things I'm an organized genius" since I've gotten into the habit of keeping stacks of stuff on my desk so people don't think I'm bored. That's not the fun resolution. Moving on!)

I've got two major weaknesses that thwart traditional resolutions: I'm obsessive to the exclusion of everything else... but I lack staying power. (None of this should be a surprise to you.) Having to do something in moderation over a long period of time leads directly to me thinking I suck as a person. But I was thinking this week that maybe, if I frame my life right, instead of banging my head against these obstacles, they could suddenly be awesome traits I could use to my advantage!

You know it's legit when I make a graphic in PaintBrush.
