Certainty

Fun Fact: While you were busy as children collecting baseball cards signed by Ken Griffey Jr, I was hording away Elvis trading cards in a Lisa Frank pencil box. My parents thought it was really weird and it make me self-conscious. Looking back, it was just par for the only-child course, but I used to rapidly transfer my fixations and I fell in love with Elvis while I was hot off an emotional affair with Luke Skywalker (I can't believe I'm writing this, there must have been something in that salad). This was a relief because two crushes before that, I was in love with Robin Hood...THE FOX.

Today in the Huffington Post was a little segment containing a quiver of Elvis snaps from 1956 when he was 21. I think my 8-year-old head would've exploded. The name of the above picture is called Certainty.

Its getting hot in here.

If you think about it, the only people who ask you about resolutions are the ones that don't make them. So as you list yours (a tender, vulnerable moment) they eagerly sit there, eyes wide, mouth agape, and listen to you spill and then when you ask them, they say they don't make resolutions - its kinda like an anorexic watching you eat a hamburger.

Is refusing to be resolute a form of spiritual starvation? Or are these people just not thinking constructively because they killed too many braincells during the Holiday Party gauntlet? People I am talking about, you know who you are. Lets get cracking and make some lists to share!

Okay! So here are mine. Aside from the implied resolutions of each passing year, I would like to do the following in 2010:

1. Stop watching Internet television...UNLESS, I am with someone else
2. Transitional Bathroom/Meth room overhaul
3. and lastly! I had a college bonanza back in Seattle when I had to do some storage unit cleaning and I found my clunky, old film camera! Here is the real kicker...THERE IS FILM IN IT! probably from 2004 or even earlier!!!! talk about time capsule (or ticking time bomb?). So I would like to give the non-digi world another spin. Broves - any suggestions?
