It has to be done, so I'll just get it out of the way:

My heart's explodin'! THIS TOOTHBRUSH!

At one time, my dentist told my mom to buy me a waterpik, and to dump a full dose of Listerine (although at first it was prescription mouthwash) into it and fill it the rest of the way with water and basically mouthwashblast my teeth and gums. I have never flossed, and never will. I just can't. Many of my teeth are slightly crooked, and one is just completely out of place. I need braces something wicked, though I'd rather just do that surgery they do that gets it all done in a couple of days.

Oh, goodness, SMells!  The Oral-B TRIUMPH is a triumphant toothbrush indeed!

Shit, I say get it.  Or at least a crappy battery-powered spin brush, like I have.  It works tolerably well.  But the TRIUMPH is the toothbrussssh of the future!!

Resolutions? for 2008?  ~~~

Obtain as much horizontal professional credit as possible.

Look into buying a year or three of retirement credz.

Save a ton of money so me and the SO can go to Australia this coming summer.

Better financial habits all 'round.  Especially when it comes to budgeting and saving the mon-eh.

Keep going to the gym with Linnea, and sculpt an awesome physique once more.  Yesss!

Crazy goal:  to one day obtain an elite heart rate.  Like. . . 50!  That would be teh awesome.

To log some serious mileage on the bicycle.

To obtain flattering bridesmaid dresses for both my BFF and my younger sister's weddings in 2008.  And rock the hot bod to pull it off.

Is that a euphemism for sleeping with one's boss?

yeah, flossing is like...
maybe with practice it would get less obnoxious? but right now, for me, flossing is like when Ray decides to drink milk, and goes all out.

I predict '08 will be professionally interesting wrestling.

This is how I misread your post Ash. I'm kind of disappointed now.

I read it as meaning "collecting favors from coworkers to cash in later," but I like your interpretation better.

Sleeping in tents? Man that sounds like a messed up summer camp. At my summer camp we learned to write our names in Mayan, wrote a bunch of poetry, built stuff with solar cells, and played us the hell out of some egyptian rat screw and spades.

Horizontal pay scale, as in teacher stuff.

My goals...I think I touched on them in another thread.
Run a 9 minute mile.
Get back down to my Pre-Alaska weight (from our Not Dying thread, remember that?)
Save money, pay off credit card
Do a bunch of psychological housekeeping so that I'll be in better shape to meet my fella, when he comes along
Make a much bigger effort towards finding meatspace friends

Actually, horizontal professional credit sounded to ME like pro-wrestling so...

There has gotta be some kinda wrasslin' mojo to this thread.

In college, I played a pro-wrestler in a short film and...

I'm surprised none of those old knuckleheads ever put that up on the internet.

My actual New Years Resolution is to let negativity bring me down as little as possible.

It sounds vague as hell but it really sort of covers all the bases.

I think mine is "eat less red meat and dairy fat." Hope the cows of the world are happy with this, at least.

Past that, it was starting to sound like "figure out what I am going to do when I grow up," and that was just too depressing at my age and after how many years in a row lately that I should have been doing that... so let's just stick with the healthy eating habits. After all, it seems like I am going to have to stay alive and healthy a pretty long time to figure out the other question.

I've discovered that I'm very nice to the people around me.   I've surrounded myself with some amazingly awesome people.

I've also discovered that I'm not very nice to myself.

I have intents to be nicer to myself.  I'm very good at things, and am pleasant.   It is my resolution to allow myself to feel that way.
