New Year, New Look

eh? eh?!

Wacha think?

Classy no?

Anyhoo, thought I’d spruce up the ol’ blog for your reading pleasure.

So in honor of the New Year (and the new look) I thought I’d share a few of my 2011 resolutions.

FYI I’m mostly sharing these because if I put them out in blogland my odds of fulfilling them goes up exponentially.  (lazy girl here. Peer pressure works extremely well on me)

1. Be a better blogger.
What? I made that resolution last year? I have no idea what you’re talking about….. 
Well look at it this way: In 2010 I had like 52 posts, in 2009 I had 3. So, technically in 2010 I WAS a better blogger… kinda.
Specific goals for this blog include:
Blog at least 3 times per week.
Do more linky parties
Get a real unique layout and signature (not just the free one I googled and put up before this post)

2. Find my dream job
Get paid to blog would be A #1.  However, I really would hate to have to do those redonk “sponsored” posts and put obnoxious ads all over my blog.  eh. But seriously my fav job would be at a Federal Reserve Bank Branch.

On the edge of your seat? me too.

3. Be more Positive
It may come to a surprise to some of you but I’m a pessimist. 
I can almost see the shock on all your faces.
Husband calls it “pesimism” I call it “realism” 
Either way, I’m gonna try to not be so quick to think the sky is falling (or that all the wine is gone)

4. Finish our house
Finish it to where I’m satisfied but not head over heels in love.
Cuz that would cost a shit ton of money. (is it shit ton or shitton? grammar police?)
Specific Projects for the house include:
Paint and organize the laundry room
Paint Roommate #1’s now vacant room (tear in my beer)
Paint the gameroom
Get new carpet (but I’m gonna fight tooth and nail for hardwoods.  watch out  Husband I might kick your butt)

5. Go to the gym more than I don’t
I took a HUGE gulp of wine before I typed that.
I H-A-T-E the gym. (exhibit A)
However, Husband pulled the “I want  you to be healthy and live forever cuz I lub yu” shit and I fell for it.
I can neither confirm nor deny that I was staring at his biceps and fell for it cuz I was in a bicep stupor.
Either way, I’m obliged to go to the gym 4 out of 7 days per week.
And I just publicly announced it.
So Husband will be checking in on me….

damn biceps.

Ok peeps. Any resolutions you’d like to announce PUBLICLY?!?

Any takers? Any brave souls out there?

ok… well, I guess the cheese stands alone.
