not happening

New Year's Resolutions I should make:
  • Stop eating pizza like I don't live in New York and while we're at it, I should probably accept the fact that the excuse of "just moved back" for over-consuming Pizza stopped being valid in March.
  • Have cash on me at all times, that being said I lost the embarrassing Hello Kitty credit card about 2 months ago so I think I deserve some slack when it comes to banking & me.
  • When the subway doors open right in front of me, do not take it as a personal victory that you are fully responsible for. That was luck Jaci, not the precision that you think you have artfully mastered. (btw: if there is a NYC insider precision to artfully master then I swear I don't know about it and really seem to think that God is on my side when this happens to me)
  • Give myself enough time to get ready in the morning- because that moment when you realize your underwear is on inside out is always an eye opener in terms of re-evaluating your morning routine. 
  • Be nice to people before 11 a.m. "Coffee hasn't kicked in" is not helping you make friends in the workplace.
  • Give up on the squat being your 'signature dance move.' While your flexibility is impressive- this does not qualify as a dance move what so ever- just because Beyonce is telling you to "drop down and almost hit the floor with it" doesn't mean you have to do it.
  • Self-Edit
  • While walking like a mad women down 5th avenue to/from work, control your wild hand gestures  enough to keep your iPod from changing the song on you- because that pump me up AM session of  Hairyspray's "Good Morning Baltimore" should go un interrupted. Damn the shake to shuffle feature. I'd turn it off but sometimes flicking my wrist to make magic happen is just way too fun. that's what she said... couldn't resist!!!!! ....
  • On that note, don't ever channel Michael Scott. People really wouldn't like him in the real world.
  • stop having inside jokes with myself. and if they're so important to have then make sure they stay inside...because telling someone you have an inside joke with yourself makes it seem like you should really just stay inside. at all times. day. night. forever.

I'll give you the resolutions that I think I can actually keep sometime later this week,
-Jac

I'm so glad that I'm not the only one who has put their undies on inside out in the wee hours of the morning. Whew.
