let's make a resolution, (i'll drink to that.) let's always stay friends...

I feel as if I'm supposed to be reflecting on my life today. In all honesty, it hasn't been the best year for me, although, if I really thought about it, I could probably come up with some that have been worse. I've been called a selfish person by some, so, in the spirit of trying not to be, I've got to stop complaining about what I don't have and focus on what I do. I need, in 2009, to become a glass half-full girl (woman?... nah, I'm still not ready for that), something it's become increasingly harder for me to be. I'm constantly thinking about how sad I'll be when the fun is over and not enjoying it while it lasts.

So 2009 is going to be the year of optimism. No more worrying about what may or may not happen. I'm just going to live my life, take each day at a time and whatever happens, happens. I'm going to go out on a limb here and make the call that I am too awesome to die alone. Unless I die in the immediate future... see, there's the pessimism I was telling you about! I am going to get all of that out in the next twelve hours, I swear.

Also, to all my friends, I love you more than I can say (unless I'm wasted). I am so happy to have you all in my life and I will appreciate your help in turning over my 2009 leaf. I am allergic to leaves, so I'd rather not handle it all on my own.

Happy 2009!!

Here's to optimism in '09. Let's do this thang. And to vegetables. And long hair (I'm going for Sawyer-length, it has been decided).

Wow, that will be quite an undertaking but I have faith in you. To 2009!!

You are indeed too awesome to die alone Jen. In my single days I used to think of it more as being free than alone. In my opinion being with someone and being single have equal benefits. One is not necessarily better than the other. Hopefully you understand what I'm saying and if not I hope you will learn. And if you need any help, your friends are always here.

Now go out and do something you normally wouldn't do. You don't have to answer to anyone anymore. Freeeeeeeeedoooooooooommmmmm!

I have been living in a hole in Borough Hall as of late but I crawled out and read this today. Love you Jen, yay for 2009! (your New Years' party rocked my socks off!) Going back in the hole now, when I come out, we should go out on the town.
