2017s 2018 HAPPY NEW YEARS & RESOLUTIONS

[LaBelle]

Happy new years netphorian people! Hope everyone has/had a nice time during the transition and that 2018 be a better year for you and everyone you love!

What are your resolutions if any?!

mine are:
- be a kinder and nicer person in general. 2017 was one of those years I've let people get to me the most and let out a side of myself I really dislike.
- listen more than talk.
- eat less fatty food.

Still working on some of my goals from last year, but one thing I'd like to do is stop being such a smartass in real life. Most of the time, if a quip or line pops into my head, I just need to get it out there, even if it may not be appropriate or welcomed.

* Keep going forward with broadcasting

* Watch a ton of baseball

* Grow as a musician, write more songs

* Buy a new china cymbal, new 14" tom head

* Continue evolving

Be the best single parent I can be
Stop taking the klonopin
Learn something new every day
Maaaaybe drink less coffee but probably not
Continue with my sobriety


Basically gracefully pass the torch and become a boring old woman and let my kid be the exciting one now. Rest these tired bones and look on with wonder

[ilikeplanets]

Oh and get outside more once this atrocious winter passes. I hate the cold and snow but love walking during spring time

[vixnix]

find the best laksa in singapore
eat chilli crab
go to a durian restaurant


truthfully though I want to finish a screenplay and pitch it to someone

last year I was aiming for a low carb year lololol

will never achieve anything

[cork_soaker]

not with that attitude!

[vixnix]

currently ushering in the new year with a grilled cheese sandwich at 2:27am because the stress of new year's eve social engagements left a bit of a hole

that only a grilled cheese sandwich could fill

[LaBelle]

Forgot to say I also want to travel more this year, hopefully to a different country.

I. resolve to poop

etc

[reprise85]

i'd like to do these things, but i wouldn't say i'm resolved to doing them:

be more sociable
take healthy risks with others (trusting, etc)
eat better i guess
take care of my home better
if i get interviews at grad school stop focusing on my weight and how they'll never take me seriously because of it and just focus on having a good interview

[smashingjj]

- record an album with both bands (starting January 2, we're going to London)
- drink less than I do now
- travel the world and the seven seas

Have you not been pooping this whole time?

[FoolofaTook]

I have excellent bowel movement. But even excellence can be improved upon.

[Shallowed]

Get a different job

[FoolofaTook]

What do you do?

[Shallowed]

Your mum

[yo soy el mejor]

[life's_a_drag]

Get out of the house
Get a job
Start really working on drums
Maybe make some lasting friends

[FoolofaTook]

You could start with MarquisinDads

[life's_a_drag]

We've already PMed a bit, dunno if internet friends count tho. I'm utter shit at long distance and usually they come as quickly as they go, but who knows I guess.

Story of my life

[Run To Me]

#1 = be present more often, try to recognize when im hearing stories about whats happening, try to feel the moment in my heart/butt rather than the words that spring up to spinterpret whats happening

i know that sounds selfhelp and corny but im real bad about being distant, replaying/rehearsing conversations, fearing/longing4 the future, dissecting/distorting the past, rather than "oh wait thats sunlight on the wall, thats a shadow from a bird's wing, my toes feel cold, my belly stings, i hear the garbage truck, that's a smile on a face that will change and grow and maybe even wont always be here, so let me mark that smile, respond

the more i dismiss the wordparties that swarm, the more here i am + here u are + lets have this here/now together

[Run To Me]

Ok it is now someones duty to get drunk af and describe it to us in here in detail so we can vicarious party thru u

[FoolofaTook]

I am so sober. Been thinking about this eighth of Optimus Prime all day. Sigh. Gonna go on a long walk up Mill Creek and try not to rebreak my leg on the icy sidewalks.

sobriety blows

[reprise85]

today my manager hugged me and stuff. i was distant as fuck. i had a bad day though, with hurting my foot and some bitch customer was hostile as fuck to me for no reason whatsoever except that i couldnt make money magically appear for her via western union and fucking powerball madness all day. and no when they call me tomorrow to be the powerball bitch all night i'm going to say no f u.

customers usually dont get to me but this lady was an exception
