so about this new year thing

I wish I could write something sentimental about it being a new year. Woo hoo! Hooray! 2007!

But I don't know what my year holds. I literally do not know what I will be doing in February this year.

To be perfectly honest, I don't care.

So to say something poxy like I will eat/drink less, lose some weight seems a little bit contrived. Maybe I will. I hope I will. It would be fabulous, come December 31st 2007 to be looking incredibly foxy.

But I wouldn't be disappointed if it wasn't like that at all.

So in the spirit of non-resolution, here are my status quos that I will maintain:

1. I will drink coffee. Lots. I will enjoy it. Lots
2. I will disregard the severe warnings on my clothes and tumble dry them.
   
3. I will get pissed off when Lucky the canary or any other member of my household wakes me up half an hour before my alarm is due to go off.
4. I will say nothing when I don't want or need to.
   
5. I will speak up and say something when I want or need to.
6. I will not fear looking stupid or asking stupid questions.
7. I will work hard and dream big.
8. I will live up to my own expectations and no-one else's.
9. I will still be somewhat indecisive.
   
10. I will be generous.
11. I will still watch Gilmore Girls and wish I could be as verbose and witty as Lorelai.
12. I will be sorry when it's called for and unapolagetic when it's something I believe in.

This is not a set of resolutions, but a constitution.
