PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

Emotionally prepare for the Mets '09 collapse.

LAST EDITED ON 12-27-08 AT 11:46 AM (EST)1. Play Spoiler Island next year. 2. Get half a clue so that I can friend more OTers on Facebook and Goodreads. (I know you're out there, I just can't find you!) 3. Look in the thesaurus for new and interesting ways to say RTFG. 4. Get rid of some of those massive paper piles in my house. 5. Watch enough Netflix movies so that Mr. B doesn't pick on me for not using our membership. (I'm watching "Once" today. Watched "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" last night. I'm getting an early start on this one.) 6. Not ban my own mother, just threaten to do it. (This is a standard on the list each year.) 7. Feed my children things other than mac and cheese and chicken nuggets. ETA #7 after reading Kimmah's list.

2. Get some more sunshine and exercise.
3. Enjoy life more.
4. Control my stress more.
5. Read more good books. If I do 1 and 2, I think I will see an improvement in my weight. I'm not using the dreaded "D" word this year.

Congrats on the weight loss. I would like to see 140 this year myself. Only 25 for me to go. Perhaps we should be 140 buddies.Regarding Facebook, I am undecided. While I will agree with Kimmah, I think, about it being more grown up, it's still very "My Spacey" to me. And it can be a lot of work. I am a very sporadic facebooker. Maybe if I were there more often, I would like it more. I like my blog.
Tis the season.

87. "RE: Resolutions for the New Year" |
*sits next to fellow diet coke addict*I drink a hellastupid amount of the stuff. Are you going to go cold turkey, or wean yourself off gradually? I think I may have to go the cold turkey route. Other resolutions
Keep off the weight I loss since summer 07 (30 pounds) and lose the last bit to get under the 140 mark. I did for a brief shining moment, but I was doing the fast/cleanse prep for one of those horrid tests so I don't think that counts. People actually pay for cleanses? *boggle* Work out at least twice a week. And I found a dance moves class that go on when DD is in school, and has the flexibility so I can make up a class in another location if I have to miss. Get some meaningful (OK any) employment outside of my house that will allow me to have adult conversation. Cook at home more Spend less Get washer/dryer fixed or replaced.

90. "RE: Cold Turkey" |
My dryer is about that old (we inherited it when we bought the house). It works about 2/3 of the time, but I have to lean against the door and listen for the heat to kick in. It has no handle so it is held closed with a child fridge lock and duct tape. Unfortuantely, the laundry room may have been built around the washer dryer (it certainly was around the deep freezer)so it is going to be a challenge to get the pair out and new ones in. It will involve taking apart two shelving units and clearing out all the clutter and doing some serious bribing of the delivery guys

1). Lose 5 pounds. And get more toned. Losing the 5 would go a long toward the toning because all I really need to do both is up the exercise ante. 2). Keep up my reconnection to my dreams of my youth. It took turning 50 to discover that those dreams still matter and weren't just youthful naivete. 3). Blog more often. Or just write more often...anywhere. It gives me pleasure and makes me think more clearly. And clear thinking is truly a worthy goal every year.

66. "RE: Resolutions for the New Year" |
LAST EDITED ON 12-29-08 AT 09:15 AM (EST)1. Lose weight and get back down to where I was before the "move to Charlotte" meltdown. (I am soooo pissed at myself. I worked so friggin' hard to lose that weight. I looked and felt great. Then we moved and things completely fell apart.) 2. Learn how to use my camera. I bought the Canon Rebel XTi and still treat it like my point and shoot. 3. Stop watching so much television. Gah. 4. Get outdoors more often. For Pete's sake, I live in a warm climate, I should be outside all the time! 5. Embrace Charlotte and North Carolina. My mother has a cross-stich that says "Bloom Where You Are Planted." I need to employ that thought process. I'm *still* homesick and need to get over it already. 6. Make some new IRL friends. I made some poor choices for friends over the past year. Really poor choices. Liars and manipulators do not make good friends. Eff you, Meg! (This chick has the same moral compass as Lacey from Rock of Love.) 7. Be more patient. I snap much too easily. 8. Love on Bear as much as possible. The old boy doesn't have much time left.   Proud member of The Tribe.

I always liked my dear departed friend Bruno's list (hey, he made it to 87, don't snigger):1. Eat more red meat
2. Eat more saturated fats
3. Get less sleep
4. Exercise less
5. Build up on that drinking He used to say "increase smoking" too, but eventually his doctors convinced him to quit. I don't make NY resolutions because I find them easier to break than other promises to myself. I think this year the goal is to hang on to job and help Sneetch find one once she graduates (!!!) in May.

Accept all assignments at work, and be thankful to get them. (I love my job!) 4. Purchase a motorcyle and successfully complete the CHP course and license. Get promoted at work. (yes, they're related.) 5. Read the Harry Potter series. Finally! 6. Make it possible for my daughter to be an exchange student next fall in England. 7. Arrange as many "pitch" meetings as possible, and at least one sale -- 8. Address that ol' graduate student loan debt. Be savvy in my ability to pay off the interest and the principle, and make more than a small dent. (geg? any pointers?) 9. Keep my ZERO credit card balance and not own a credit card. 10. Try not to complain, and find the positive instead.

3. Get my workload at work under control, so I can grow my position.
yeah, boring, but I'm working on a 4th one.

1) Actually post on OT rather than just lurk, and try to reestablish some of the friendships I started and enjoyed before I dropped off the face of the earth.2) Try to read at least a few of the books reviewed in '1001 Books to Read Before You Die' instead of re-reading the same books over and over again. (Granted, it helps if there is enough lag time between readings so that I can't exactly remember the ending three pages into the book, but still, I really need to expand my literary horizons.) 3) Come straight home after work more nights than not, instead of stopping at the local watering hole. Cook at home more often, 'cos you know what?, I'm just as good a cook as DH is. 4) Try to write in my journal every day. My sister is right, writing things down helps me work out my problems and makes me feel better. 5) Decide once and for all what I want to be when I grow up. Happy New Year to all, and my wishes to you for a safe, happy, and healthy 2009!!
