New Year's Resolutions
Jan. 2nd, 2005 08:19 pmI am not good with resolutions. I have problems with resolutions that are too specific ("get my laundry out of the laundry room the same day that I wash it" type thing), and with resolutions that are too general ("be nicer" type things). (Incidentally, my sister tells me that my niece made up a new verse to The Worry Song today: "though it hurts you, though it hurts you, be a pleasanter guy, we won't like you, we won't like you, if you're wearing a tie!")
I have this crowd of inner monkeys. What's the word for monkeys in large groups? I have one of those in my brain. The monkeys are probably my biggest inner demon. They monkeys thrive on distraction. They like television, confusion, uselessness, and making fun of stupid people.
My New Year's Resolution is to conquer the monkeys.
Feel free to tell me how that is both too specific and too general, and that the odds are good that the monkeys are responsible for the Miss Princess digression in the opening paragraph.
