2013 Resolutions: How’d I do?
Here it is: in case you want to read the whole thing, but in 2013 I resolved to:
- Continue to love cats: Did it. Made this vid at Comic Con
- Continue to discuss hot guys on TN: Ugh Duh. We did it more than ever.
- Turn 30 and embrace it: Last night I confessed to my husband 2013 might have been my best year yet, and thirty isn’t that bad… I actually feel like my thirties might be better than my twenties……
- Googling “Joe Lando” will probably be one of the top reasons why people find That’s Normal: I just looked. “Joe Lando” was the 3rd most googled keyword for people coming across That’s Normal in 2013 (and who weren’t signed into Google b/c #GOOGLESUCKSNOW #SEOLESSON #ANALYTICS #NSHIT)
- I might be a 30 year old with a kitchen table. I bought my first kitchen table in 2013. I AM SO GROWN UP.
- I might still write about Twilight on TN. We did it 11 Times which seems high for a non-Twilight blog but also makes me sad because for 4 years I wrote about it almost 365 times a year.
- I might go to Spain. DID IT. Got the charge on my credit card from when I had to see the medic after fainting in customs trying to leave the EU to prove it. Umm…. I don’t think I ever shared that story. But that’s a thing that happened, and if my husband wasn’t there to catch me I’d probably be in a German grave right now. Or in a German jail still being interrogated as a suspected terrorist. So yay for my husband.
- I might go to Comic Con DID IT. Lived to tell about it. Internet Proof
I am SO impressed with myself! I really kicked some ass in 2013. I wasn’t going to make 2014 resolutions, but considering how much I killed it in 2013, I might as well. So without further ado:
My 2014 New Year’s Resolutions I may or may not keep
- I want to be healthier I am a vegetarian and I love me a kale salad, but I have a bordering unhealthy obsession with Pepperidge Farm Goldfish and that shit has GMOs sooo… I’m going to try to give them up
Which is near impossible when they are BAR snacks at places I frequent - I want to become a Whiskey Girl: Because Pinot Noir is soooo 2013*. And there’s something really sexy about a girl who goes into a bar and orders three fingers of whiskey (that isn’t Wild Turkey, Jack Daniels or Jim Beam) Well, sexy if that girl doesn’t cough and turn red in the face because of the burn. Which is basically what I look like after I take a sip of $14/glass whiskey these days. Or a $5/glass whiskey for that matter… (*JK I love you Pinot Noir)
- I want to run a race: I started running a few years ago for pleasure (and because I consume a bag of goldfish every other day) but haven’t yet achieved my goal of running a race- of ANY kind. I’m not talking a 1/2 marathon here (but I’m considering it). A 5k would do. I just want to get up with the sun, pin a number to my back and get sweaty next to some strangers.
- I’m going to kill it in my career: Guys- 2014 is my year for my career. I made some changes late in the year in 2013, but I’m not done yet. I’m about to blow.this.bitch.up. I mean… just remember me as I was okay? My cube is going from a 4×7 to a 5×8. And this Power Suit is getting boughten just as soon as I get that Q2 bonus:
Source - I want to go to Italy actually this one is probably going to be confirmed when I purchase tickets for my husband & I later this week, but I just wanted to throw it up here so I could regale you with stories of my medical emergency in front of the Italian customs officer next January…
I’m pretty excited about 2014 because 2013 really was a great year!
What are your New Year’s Resolutions you may or may not keep?
