i’m realizing that as good an idea as it is, i might live to regret my “enjoy, enjoy, enjoy” resolution for 2005.
over the weekend i drank four nights in a row. followed that up with two nights out to dinner (and, sure, a drink or two). i have to try to remember to take a couple hours off to at least do laundry before i leave tomorrow morning to go to tahoe for the weekend, for a daily three-day boarding/drinking regimen that should be completely fun-tastic. as will finally seeing gabe again after two long years, which i can’t wait to do.
my only concern is that if i keep at this, i may not need to worry about resolutions for next year — my blaze of glory will come and go and leave only a fatally bright flash behind me, as i vaporize in a cloud of white hot excitement. ironically, i finally signed up for a 401k program just yesterday, which made me feel old and pointedly non-thrilling. maybe i should just party to death before the deductions start on my next paycheck so as not to waste resources.
but lifestyle ruminations aside, let’s focus on the important thing. i’m going to tahoe this weekend! isn’t that weird? i feel richer just saying it. “i’m going to tahoe for the weekend.” of course, i’ll probably be sleeping in a potato sack on some dude’s floor, and subsisting on bottled water and french fries, but these are minor details. i’m going to tahoe this weekend.
