During what turned out to be a charming supper with an equally charming gentleman, the topic of resolutions came up. He and his friends had decided in lieu of making resolutions, they would just DO something to or for another friend each month. I like this concept. It seems genuine enough...or at least the thought behind it.
I don't make resolutions either. Rather, I make promises... and threats through the year. Such as, I promise to dedicate more time to housekeeping...or I swear I'm not above kicking your ass! I don't make resolutions because it basically means to resolve to do something for good. If it's really that good that you need to make a big deal out of it by broadcasting it to all of God's creation...shouldn't you have been doing it all along? Or, maybe you are but, never knowing.
Do it or Don't...either way, life goes on (until Dec. 21, 2012 according to the Mayans...and yes, they might have had a clue or two...they did discover chocolate...just sayin'). In the spirit of "DO something every month", I have decided to draw up the official "Rogue DOers Promises and Threats for 2012"
January: Champs, scotch, and absinthe (in that order).
February: Chocolate...and sex. Then sex with chocolate.
March: "Killing Off" a few frienemies one at a time.
April: Cash in the "golden egg" after Tax Day.
May: BBQ and beer(the cold, cheap kind...and lots of it).
June: Protest Marriage and Celebrate Divorce.
July: Connect with my "inner Hemingway"...hide the rum.
August: Public Nudity, Cold Gin, and black light the tonic.
September: Random Fall Fashion Citations.
October: Dance in the graveyard at midnight...with a priest.
November: Serve tofu turkey and sushi for Thanksgiving.
December: Sell everything and throw a "World's End" party
