Well-Rounded Resolutions

January 5th, 2010 · No Comments · Issues of Modernity, maintenance

New Year’s is a vaguely meaningful holiday for me because it snuggles right up to my birthday, which is… today. This, I feel, gives me slightly more incentive to make and keep resolutions, because it’s not so much a “now that the calendar says it’s a new year,” motivation, it’s more of an “okay, now I am 27, and so I will,” motivation. Accordingly:

Now I am 27, and so I will…

  • Stop saying “no worries” where it does not apply. Say “you’re welcome.” “No worries” makes me sound like a moron.
  • Use the days: Wake up on time, wake up earlier on weekends, don’t waste so much time.
  • Break the gmail-facebook-twitter-tumblr procrastination cycle when nothing is going on and do something like clean a drawer, Furminate the cats, put away dishes, read, or just go to bed on time.
  • Never watch anything on E! except The Soup.
  • “Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.”
  • Only date grownups.
  • Minimize the shit-talking. A little.
  • Sit and stand up straight. Posture posture posture!
  • Not buy things I don’t need that aren’t Taylor Swift songs.
  • Figure out where to do what on the Internet.

Those seem like pretty good ideas.
