2010 Resolutions/thank you Twitter


It's 2010, people. It's officially the future. I mean just look at it: '2010'. It's sleeker than 2009, more streamline and aerodynamic - sexier. It looks like a movie poster, a movie poster for a really good movie. In 2008 one of my new year's resolutions was for that to be the last year I make, and inevitably don't keep, new year's resolutions. Then around October, 2008, I realized that it's impossible to make a new year's resolution that would carry over into other years. So I guess I have to make some for 2010.

Before I get into that, I'd like to thank Twitter for changing their default question from 'What are you doing?' to 'What's happening?' Whenever I saw 'What are you doing?' I couldn't help but internally adding 'with your life' to it, and it always made me drink more.

On to the resolutions. I have decided for sure on the following 8:

1. Exercise 4-5 days a week, no exceptions, no excuses - Your boy Deek was starting to look like Larry Holmes, flabby and sick. Trying to look like this guy by 'oh eleven'.

2. Pick up a yet-to-be-determined, frivolously unhealthy habit to balance out the healthiness of exercising so much - Because who wants to be JUST healthy? Maybe start a freelance asbestos removal business? I'm open to suggestions.

3. Stop talking to/even acknowledging people who wear fingerless gloves - What. the. fuck. The part of my hands between my fingers and my wrist have never been cold to my knowledge. When I say my hands are cold, I mean my fingers are cold. Wearing fingerless gloves is like wearing a torso-less shirt or pants that only cover your legs from the thigh down. And what's with people who wear them all day, even inside where it's warm? I'm all the way over you people in 2010.

4. Get a pen pal - Never had one. Want one. Will probably write 1 letter and then lose interest. But hey, whatever, it's the future. Both pens and pals are on their way out, so get them while you can.

5. Not worry about 2012 - I spent a lot of time in 2009 worrying about potential impending doom that will be arriving in December of 2012. I'd rather not worry about it in 2010, but I make no promises.

6. Grow 2 inches taller - I would love to finally break the 6 foot mark.

7. Finish the 9 screenplays I'm working on - Yes, I'm that guy. No, I don't think I'll do anything with them after they're done other than have something that borders on a feeling of satisfaction.

8. Update this blog once a week - There, I said it. You witnessed it. And this time I fucking mean it.

That's it for now. I hope everyone's 2010 goes well! *don't worry about 2012, don't worry about 2012, don't worry about 2012...*
