...for why I quit drinking on a regular basis....

Check out the source link below, if you've done any drinking in your life, or you plan to drink tonight... might be worth the review.

So, it looks like last year I said that my new year's resolution had to do with me learning some about impulse control. Well, I have to say that I half succeeded and half failed in that area. I think I'm better at dealing with people at work, not wearing my emotions on my sleeve, etc when I'm working.

In other cases however, this past year was pretty shitty when it comes to relationships, and I think a big part of that is due to my continued lack of impulse control across the full gamut of activities that I involve myself in. Long story short, I need to do more work on my impulse control.

I'm also thinking that I could do better with my money management if I keep my eye on the ball when it comes to impulse control. I mean seriously... my biggest impulse is to go spend money I don't have on shit I don't need that will only make me want it more... but only after I don't have it for awhile...

.... yeah... "what a mind fuck!" is right...

As always, thanks for reading this year!

...that I would have done better to make my new years resolution something more closely aligned with keeping my mouth shut.

I ran my mouth a bunch over the weekend, and pretty much just set a bunch of fires all over town.

Now I get to put them out... super.

On top of that I am looking for a job. If you need someone to write for you, let me know.

I was doing some thinking earlier today (because that's my pastime... fuck sports) and I'm stuck wondering what life is going to be like once I start treatment.

That's right, treatment... I unfortunately got into a bit of trouble on Halloween evening and so today I got to go pee in a cup and answer a bunch of questions in the hopes that what this guy decides that I do with my life, is not the same as what he thinks a crack head or someone with a serious drug and/or alcohol problem does with theirs...

But alas... if you know me then you already read the joke. It's in the paragraph above... if you don't know me personally... then let me help you out a bit... it's the part where I elude to the opinion that I don't have a serious problem....

Heh, that might just be the best joke I've heard all week....

Ok door... you are open now, so I need for you to stay open until I walk through the threshold... then please shut yourself and hold me in with all of your might... it's going to be a rough ride...

So, I got up @ 7am this morning, went to "Hot Yoga" at 8am and spent 90 minutes sitting in 106 degree heat.

I have to say, I don't know if I actually have another drop of sweat in me. I sweat out so much that I think I may have lost 20 pounds in 90 minutes.

That aside, I guess the really cool part was getting another "hit" of toxins as they left my system. I have to admit I felt pretty lit up just from sitting there and stretching out.

So in conclusion, I am glad that I went this morning and I look forward to going again.

Well this sounds as though it could be very interesting, and it's definitely something I haven't tried before.

Tomorrow morning, well actually later today as it is almost two in the morning, I will be going to a session of "Hot Yoga" with two very good friends of mine.

I know a little bit of what to expect at this "Hot Yoga" place, such as women in skimpy clothing, a 106 degree room temperature (yes folks thats in Fahrenheit), and some other stuff that will undoubtedly blow my mind right out of the fucking stratosphere.

I will keep you posted and let you know how things went at "Hot Yoga" later today.

So I'm sitting here reading the news, watching TV and I just put that post up about the lack of consumer awareness when it comes to the HD television format.

All of the sudden, it was like a rock fell out of the sky and hit me in the head, except it wasn't a rock at all... it was a realization. I just came across about seven other news articles that I want to post, and I thought to myself "damn, why didn't I wait to post that story about HD until I was done reading the news today?"

The important part of that sentence is the "why didn't I wait..." part. I never wait, and I often make these "shotgun" decisions before I have all of the necessary information. That said, I think it would be largely appropriate for me to make "slowing down until I have all of the information" (or at least a larger percentage of it) my resolution for the new year.

It seems fitting that given the field that I work in (Project Management and Analyst work) that this would be an easy change for me to make.

It might even be fun to post regular updates about how well I do under the "new years resolution" label, so that's what I will do.
