what the world needs now is ricky martin, sweet ricky martin

dammit, where did he go? he's not like shania twain, you know... people like that can disappear forever and not make over-hyped comebacks, as far as i'm concerned. but ricky martin was just fun. and the world needs fun. it needs fun now. it needs fun in the form of ricky martin and his bon-bon of steel right this very minute! amen.

in other news, i decided, right around five minutes ago, that i actually do have some new year's resolutions. and it's never too late for self-improvement, or at least that's what i always say. ok, i don't always say that. in fact, this might be the first time in my life that i've said that, but that is not the point here. the point is, that in order to be the lean, mean jamelah machine that i know i can be, there are some things i need to do. things like:
1. smoke less. i don't want to quit, because quitting is for quitters, but i'm burning through about 40 bucks a week, and that just has to stop.
2. read more. and not in the form of text on the internet. i made a big long list of books i wanted to read when i graduated from college.... books i never had time to read because i was too busy with beowulf and the love poetry of john donne. i've read about five of those books, and i've been a college graduate for almost two years now. it's time i worked on that.
3. save some money. i want to get back to europe before i'm 25, and i can't very well afford to do that if i keep spending all my frickin' cash on cigarettes and shoes. so... yeah.
4. walk. i like walking. it is pleasant. i hate my car. it is unpleasant. i live in a small town, and everything is five blocks away. this one shouldn't be hard.
5. learn für elise. and i mean really learn it. not just in my half-assed "oh, that's close enough" way. i have the first part down, but it starts getting all feisty in the middle, and i'm going to straighten it out. oh yes.

right, then. here i am being all late for work again because i was updating my blog.

6. stop being late for work. yeah.

hallelujah.
