Top Ten List
It's New Year's Day, and you know what that means. Try to make yourself a better person, and come up with some resolutions to make it happen. I've put together a few, and here they are. My New Years Resolutions for 2012.
10. Stop smoking. Of course, I'd need to start smoking in order to stop, but that's beside the point.
9. Even if I go to Lima, Ohio, or Lima, Peru, I'll resolve not eat one lima bean in 2012.
8. The obligatory lose weight. I have had it on every one of my resolution lists for the past 20 years, and it will be on the next 20.
7. And while I'm doing that, maybe I need to get healthier. It may be time to exercise more, and do all the healthier stuff that I should. A good start will be by staying out of the hospital in 2012.
6. Figure out the words to 'Auld Lang Syne.' Then next New Years Eve, if and when it comes up in conversation, I'll be prepared.
5. Move somewhere warmer. That's easy to say, since it is middle of winter.
4. I was at a party recently, and was spotted on the dance floor. Resolution number 4, No more dancing. HK was worried I'd fall and hurt myself, or someone else. Granted, I'm may not be 'Gene, Gene, the Dancing Machine,' but is it correct to say I'm worse at dancing than Elaine on Seinfeld? Come on HK, I can't be that bad, can I?
3. Don't write 2011 on anything any longer. Even putting together this piece, I've had to go back and change 2011, to 2012. Last year I was writing 2010 on checks and other documents, well into February. .
2. I resolve to stop dropping sheets of drywall on HK's head. It was an accident, no matter what she's telling you...
And my number one resolution for 2012?
1. Do a better job of keeping my New Years Resolutions.
Back Tuesday with another So as I was Saying essay.
Happy New Year
