P.S.Res.2010

Sunday, January 31st, 2010

This resolution was held up in committee there awhile. It’s now up for vote.

WHEREAS a new year has arrived,

WHEREAS, in the tradition of my culture, it is customary for an individual to reflect on her habits and lifestyle at the turn of the year, and to seek to align these with her goals and values,

WHEREAS I observe this tradition,

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED that I will compromise less, and more. I will say “no” more, and less. I shall strive for the wisdom to know the difference.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that I will cultivate many friendships. Practice being alone. Stay single.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that I will travel way way way less than I did in 2009. Tele-trip. Stay-cation.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that I will be here now. Synchronize clocks. End the mind games. White Rabbit, Mad Hatter nonsense.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that I will stop watching Glee. Seriously, not since the “Preggers” episode where Kurt joins the football team and comes out to his dad has the show done anything for me. The admiration of many respected cultural advisers notwithstanding, Glee is hereby banished from my Hulu.com queue.
