Here Comes 2008

Nope. They never stick.

I could tell myself I'm going to be more forward with women, but then I won't meet any new women. I'll tell myself I'm going to go out and meet new women, but then I'll only meet married or unattractive women. I will tell myself I'm going to work harder, but then I wouldn't have any real work to do for weeks.

It's easier to just not bother. And better for my psyche as well.
 
Thinking about it, now that you've asked. It will be something like to make the absolute most of this new year, because they fly by so darned fast and then it's over. :rose:
 
I don't know about resolutions, but I'll be glad to see 2007 go. It's been the second worse year of my adult life. Second only to 1991.

It's one of those deals where there just a whole lot of things that go wrong/bad for you. 2007 was one of them for me.
 
That sucks, Wildcard. I remember your telling us about some of that, too. The New Year is arbitrary, but here's hoping it may mark off the dead year firmly, and change your fortunes.


This year, I do my cross-country road trip: Hamilton, Ontario-- Port Huron-- UP Michigan-- the badlands of SD-- Montana-- Lolo Pass-- Olympia and Seattle-- the PC Highway-- Bryce Canyon-- KS-- KY-- the Blue Ridge Parkway and Outer Banks in NC-- a bit of Virginia-- then up the coast to home. No Interstates, no night driving. I resolve only, as always, to try to make things better wherever I go.
 
Nope, No, Not this year

At my age resolutions seem like a waste of time. If I ain't changed by now it's just too damned late. :eek:;):eek:
 
I'm going to set two goals for myself:

One, do some serious traveling for the first time in years. Something that will stretch me a bit, so hopefully I'll make it to Vietnam and/or Tokyo or Venezuela and/or Bolivia.

Two, write beyond my comfort boundaries. That's a pretty vast field. I've fallen into a terribly lazy habit of spawning stories from erotic fantasies, and even though I think my writing will always revolve around sexuality, I'd like to attempt something other than porn/erotica.
 
I'm more goal oriented than resolution bound, and my goals are always modest. Anyway, my goal is to lose some flab...say...25 pounds. Maybe add 12 books to my Florida History collection.
 
Gonna make any resolutions?

Made mine early because annual pool passes were on sale in November -- I relsolved to swim 366 nautical miles by the first of November 2008. (I'm already 40+ miles towards that goal, but the pool's closed for ten days until Jan 2, so that's going to put me 17 miles under the curve instead of the 8 miles I was scheduling for. :( )
 
I normally don't do resolutions but...

I gave up coffee this past year for health reasons related to my breasts...but I gained weight....

But then again...I stopped working out.

So this year....Gonna start working out again....and reward myself with an occasional cup of coffee.:)


Yeah....gonna TRY to give up cigs...again.
 
I'm with Rob and Rumple on this one.

No, nope, no can do.

I spend a good part of every day trying, thinking, planning ways for me to be a better person - kinder, wiser, more helpful, less egocentrical and more a person of whom I would be proud.

Why wait until New Years?

I'm going to try to lose about 30 pounds. I lost that much in 2007, unless I put some of it back on during the holidays, and I am going to try to lose another thirty pounds in 2008. :D

I'm going to continue writing smut, but I am sometimes going to try to make the stories a little more literary. But no less dirty. :D

I might think of some more later.
 
Is resolving to lose weight when its already coming off due to finally being on the right medication cheating?
