New Year's Eve and it's hard to believe
another zodiac has gone around.

While you drank yourself high on hoping
and watched the ceiling spin from the ground.

Counting down from ten it's time
to make your annual prayer.

Secret santa in the sky
when will I get my share?

Then you tell yourself
what you want to hear.

Cause you have to believe.

This will be my year.

This will be my year...Semisonic

Who ever said that it was easy to be interesting?

What's happened since Saturday?

First of all the trip back to NJ was rainy. Should I break out into a Cabbage Patch song? We actually got home at decent hour and the house was not a wreck, however Gill did discover his chair was severely gouged today. It made me sad. We took a moment to reflect on how fragile perfection is and now he's watching a show about training "Navel Aviators" or some such thing on Dicovery Wings. I am going downstairs @ 10PM to watch the Sex and the City Episode which I accidentally taped on HBO Latino last night instead of regular HBO. Don't worry I still love TeVo.

Boring Sidney boring...

So, I don't believe in New Year's resolutions or at least I don't make them but here's what I hope to continue to work on moving forward.

1. As my wise husband and few hundred self help books always try to reinforce..."Don't let your worries about tomorrow ruin your today."

2. I am going to try to be less hard on myself.

3. And most importantly I am going to continue to try to lower my expectations of others. Which sounds kind of shitty but in reality I hold people up to the expectations that I have for myself which are most often criminally high. Which explains why I am so rough on myself and thus don't hold much of what I do in very high regard a lot of the time. But getting back to others...I am most often disappointed when people don't meet my expectations. I won't get to far into it but the flock has thinned significantly as a result.

The friends that are still around are pretty fucking amazing.

Maybe I should work on saying fuck less.
