a NEW year. Whooohooo!
I like how people get all hysterical around these symbolic dates
and give them all sorts of meanings. I like the reviewers who
look back at the things they got done in 2010. Nobody will tell you
the things they screwed up. They will remember only things that
went well. Mission accomplished!
I like the braggers who feel the need to tell you about all the
cool places they’ve been to. With pictures! See that? That’s me in
some random hotel in some random place. I’ve been there. Care
already.
I like the people who get all jitteryabout the holiday season.
The ones that enjoy it and the ones that want you to believe they
enjoy it. They all end up eating to much and/or drinking too much
and having the impression they had a good time. Nothing compares to
booze and laughing uncontrollably… Pull yourself together.
And I specially like the overachievers-gone-wild… on a
resolutionsetting spree of course. This year, everybody will
lose 20 pounds, will get a substantial raise or a better job, will
buy a better car, will spend more time with the loved ones, will
quit smoking, will live life to the fullest, will get out of debt,
will learn something new, will help everybody that needs it and
will organize the shit out of everything. NOT. Pick one thing and
do that.
So, 2011 is here? Now what? Life goes on like normal. The special
moment is gone. We can all go back to our lemming-like life.
