The Alternative New Year's Resolutions Thread

[scheherazade_79]

Forget all the self-improvement bollocks.

What are you going to do in 2007 to make life more enjoyable for you?


I've decided that from now on I'm not getting out of bed in the morning until I've listened to music for half an hour.

I'm also going to give myself regular fireworks displays.

After these kids go home (hopefully today), I'm going to refuse to have other people's children dumped on me for days at a time.

Never again.

Before Biplaymate420 moved (back in September) she reminded me that I was supposed to make my resolution for 2007 to be more cognizant of my own happiness and quit doing things because others want me to do them...

I'll try

I want to try to eat healthily and wholsomely- i dont think my diet allows for much iron intake for example.

I also want to improve my perspective of myself and situations- raise my self esteem a bit. Last night kinda made me rethink all the 'bad' things i think of myself i guess.

Also want to break certain habitual practices- that are considerably damaging.

1) Finish at least half of the stories I start.
2) Get laid more often. (research, you know)

chocolate, whenever i feel like it... not that i haven't done this last year as well.

and continue climbing, and actually learn it and that. (though right first week i break this, as i have to work on the day i have climbing class...)

oh and more traveling.

 

[rachlou]

stay away from men: seriously damaging to my health.

 

[Roxanne Appleby]

When I get my degree out of the way, (outside of work) I'm going to read nothing but fun stuff and write nothing but porn (or other fun fiction).

 

[rgraham666]

I'm doing the same, except it will be women in my case.

Oh, and write. And promote.

 

[Nirvanadragones]

I'm seeking sanctuary for me.

Yeah i'm going to write lots too - i figure it will distract me from the fact i'm not getting any sex!

You get used to it.

It's not fun, but you get used to it.

 

[rachlou]

You get used to it.

I suppose nobody ever died from celibacy!

Yet...

 

[rgraham666]

I haven't, yet.

Most of my brushes with death have come from trying to end my celibacy.

 

[Fallenfromgrace]

I would NEVER get used to it.

More 'enjoyable' resolutions:

...make the most of the acquantainces i am lucky to have, treasure them, and spend the time.

Make the most of intimate relationships and encounters w/o damanging myself mentally or the other person either.

Learn to communicate distates and qualms with any future partner before thigns get so bad.

 

[rachlou]

I haven't, yet.

Most of my brushes with death have come from trying to end my celibacy.

Stay away from psychotic women then!!

 

[McKenna]

More cyber sex!


Oh wait. Did I say that out loud?


Seriously, though, I plan on taking care of me this year. Not that I haven't in years past, it's just that I've got some health issues I've been neglecting to manage, and this year I'm going to do something about it. When I've got myself reasonably together, I'm going on a long vacation.

I'd also like to met some Litsters this year. Possibly in conjunction with a road trip and/or said long vacation.

[Aurora Black]

Fucking like wild animals at least once every other day, for starters.

 

[Just-Legal]

Move out. For my sanity's sake I *need* to get out of this house, and Mark needs to get out of his.

Get into my wedding planning - set a firm date, pick a dress, book people, view places... And slap a certain someone who is sticking his fingers in his ears and going "la la la this isn't really happening".

Throw a HUGE engagement party. Cause dammit, I WANT TO!

 

[cumallday]

Drink less......Ha ha ha, that's not going to happen. Seriously though, take up archery again and go camping more often.

 

[shereads]

I resolve not to apologize for my failure to make a New Year's resolution or respect the resolutions of others.
