This girl I met at the airport recently called me earlier this week to see if I wanted to go with her and her friends to the Improv for New Year;s eve with Charlie Murphy (Eddie Murphy's brother). The evening started at a local bar where I had a pomegranite mojito and a beer. At the venue, we were given free champagne, which I took full advantage of. After about my 5th glass of champagne, Charlie Murphy came on stage and I started to feel sick. I went to the restroom and threw up twice. I then went back to my seat grabbed my jacket and stumbled to my car without telling the group I was leaving (too drunk to care). I drove five blocks to my house, parked in a red zone and disrobed as soon as I got into my house. I threw up some more and when I hit the bed, the clock said 12:03. I missed Charlie Murphy's act and the ringing of the new year. I can tell 2008 will be a great year.
So, here are my resolutions this year:
- No more drinking and driving!-I've taken too many risks lately. Asking a cop for directions while drunk should have been the tipping point.
- Pick up two new craft hobbies and stick to them. (decoupage and sewing)
- Get to my goal weight by May. (still in progress)
- Make my bed every morning.
- Start or join a Latin Lit book club.
- Listen more and talk less. (this blog doesn not apply)
How often do people actually stick to their resolutions? Anyone want to share theirs?
