Crunch time
I can�t remember where I found this, but I like the way it thinks.
In the year I resolve to: |
I believe that if you don�t make a new years resolution then you can�t break a new years resolution. So much so, that I still remember my last one �. I was about 8 years old and my new years resolution was to not play with matches. Well that lasted about a month . . . . (no � I didn�t burn down anything important).
Food on the other hand, is something I like to make use of every day.
You Are Chinese Food |
 Exotic yet ordinary. People think they've had enough of you, but they're back for more in an hour. |
The funny thing is I�m extremely picky when it comes to eating Chinese food. I can�t / won�t do any bottom dwellers (i.e. shrimp, crab, lobster, basically anything that is a crustation and including squid), and I always forget to tell them �No MSG�.
I think I would probably starve to death if I ever had to go to the orient.

I have to go our and brave the malls again this weekend. I still have a few incidental gifts to pick up. My problem is � what � to get these people, and I feel like I cheating if I get the standard box of chocolates, or nuts. There has got to be something that an older person would like that doesn�t impede their diet, or require them to read or do a puzzle. I�m just hitting a roadblock, and I�ve limited time to figure it out. My creative juices just aren�t flowing these days � tooooo tired - toooo many late nights.
Speaking of late nights � has anyone else wasted the last 10-12 weeks with watching �The Amazing Race � Family Edition�? This is time I can�t get back people. I can�t believe how unexciting a finale could get. This was bad!
On the flip side � I can�t put down �Bag of Bones� by Stephen King. I read until almost midnight last night. I�m almost finished, and it�s extremely intense. Unfortunately for me, I only just realized the other day that Stephen King never writes Hollywood endings. The characters you grow to love always die in the end, horrible painful, scary deaths. I think that�s the primary reason I stopped reading his books. But I will finish this one, and be content!
And for now � that�s all she wrote!
