Lacking Conviction

Hello 2015, you look a lot like 2014 to me.  Me? I am about 30 lbs. lighter, which is nice, but I find myself at a similar crossroads.  Poor eating habits, lack of exercise and general malaise have set in post-holidays.  My hair is currently brown though.  I think it was red this time last year, so that's new.

What's new with my love life you ask? Well, I met a guy from an online dating site for coffee a couple of weeks ago.  He took his profile down after we met.  His passive way of saying no for date number two I suppose.  I am definitely not good with first impressions and this especially rings true in the dating world.  

• Nervous, inane chatter - check.
• Make a really dorky reference that only two people in the universe would get and laugh about it - check.
• Try to explain dorky reference to guy and fail miserably at explaining why said reference is funny - check.

Thank goodness I already have a cat.  Single women who cannot circumnavigate the dating world need their special feline friend to talk to on lonely Friday nights.

Last night I ate Chinese food and french fries.  Not going to lie, it was pretty epic.  I also watched two lame movies and went to bed early.

I know, my life is so thrilling, how can I handle it all?  I'm special, what can I say?

So, as it is with most Saturdays, I am: 

1. At work with the special project that won't do the right thing and just throw itself on its sword.
2. Resolving that this week will be the week I get back on track...my resolve usually caves around Tuesday.
3. Plan my shopping list...today, must include cat food or feline friend is going to leave me for someone else.
4. Do laundry...because no one has invented self-cleaning clothes.

2015, I think you agree that I need to doing something different this year.  You don't want to be a tired rerun of your predecessor do you?  What do you think I should do?  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  We see where my ideas lead...to fast food and early nights in.

Here's to a new year.  It’s you and me 2015.  Maybe we can do something awesome.
