    I like most of yours SC. I don't drink much. I'd like to lose weight and shrink the debt a bit, which should be easier with one kid out of school and off the payroll.
    I would also like to date someone your age.

    I accomplished two of my lifelong goals in 2006 but overall it wasn't as good a year as you'd think given that I knocked off two of the big ones. So I hope to accomplish one more goal in '07 and have a better year overall.
    And date someone your age.

    Let's not get carried away now kiddo. :D

    As for me, lose weight. Lots and lots of weight. I hate how I look right now.

    Resolutions are bullshit. If you want to change something in your life on Dec. 26, Nov. 27 or April 13, do it on that day. Don't wait until Jan. 1.

    In a similar vein, Valentine's Day is also bullshit. If you want to buy your wife flowers, take her out or have some romantic dinner at home in March, do it then. Having that forced on people is ridiculous and contrived and just another way for Hallmark to make a buck.

    I'm not saying there aren't things in my life I don't want to change, but I don't need a change of the calendar to tell me when to do it.

    Jeez man. Resolve to lighten up.
    A new year is a fresh start. The old guy is gone, the baby is here? Seen the cartoons? It's a natural time to put a new plan in order.
    So fucking deal with it and resolve that!!

    Because BYH is a tub of lard right now. Sheesh.

    My goal is to lose my cell phone when I drink. But lose it in a place I'll find it the next day.

    And after this year, which was the craziest by far I've ever even come close to having, I'd like to just lay low in 2007. Even if like the Modster I accomplished some pretty big things I've strived for.

    Jones, do you plan on leaving your wife this year? Because that's probably the only way you can accomplish that last one.
