2009? pfffft It's already so over

It's an early start to the New Year.

Work is in turmoil, and I'm living on junk food, with predictable results. So yesterday, rock bottom day, I decided to get an early start on my New Year's resolutions in a valiant attempt to get life under control before it becomes all about sleepless nights and an additional 5 pounds to lose.

I feel like I've been in a hitchcockian spiral for too long. It has to end.

2010 starts for me next Tuesday, December 1.

if it IS in fact a hitchcockian spiral--have grace kelly play you and have cary grant be "the scottish gentleman in the elevator" who forces you to complete your work assignment in amsterdam while trying to dodge a sinister james stewart in a trench coat (featuring doris day on the soundtrack)

I, too, got a head start on a typically January activity: getting my credit card under control... *sigh*

If God wanted us to lose weight at New Years, why'd he give us the untucked shirt and the big baggy sweater?

Also, we all have to stop letting The Man tell us what our bodies should look like. Let me quote Charming Schwelb of The Affiliate (*CONCEPT*), and his web-based appeal to all women:

"Seeking our natural beautiful women to come forth. An opportunity for women to present themselves and feeling proud of who they are, unashamed of their bodies and capable to realize that being looked at is not perversion but rather admiration and complimentary of their person. It's the most important gathering of the kind where models or non models-like women will come forth and show why they have no trouble being looked at and probably even give tips to their peers as to how you reverse the negative attitude that being desirable and admired is all wrong. A real, non-virtual opportunity to meet your favorite lady(ies) in person. Rather than a simplistic pageant, it is the proud presentation of up to 15 beautiful women most voted for and selected out of all our participating ladies."

I can't think of a thing to add.
