TWO THOUSAND AND SEVEN:
1. Will you be looking for a new job? No. I am just figuring out, after seven years, how to do the one I've got (special ed teacher). I've heard some people keep finding that someone has moved their cheese, but most days I feel like someone moved the entire dairy farm.
2. Will you be looking for a new relationship? Nope.
3. New house? Nope. Just moved.
4. What will you do differently in 2007?
My exercise routine. As in, I'll have one.
5. New Year's resolution?
I always resolve to do something around early December, so I don't have to do a New Year's one.
6. What will you not be doing in 07? I will not be dating maestros, Kiwis, or schizophrenics.
7. Any trips planned? My sis and I were going to go to Norway this summer, but we're putting it off another year so we can do some debt bashing.
8. Wedding plans? No, not likely ever again.
9. Major things on your calendar? Mid-winter break, a week in February. Spring break, a week in April. Summer vacation. Why do you think I'm still a teacher?
10. What can't you wait for? my next tattoo.
11. What would you like to see happen differently? I'd like to see the federal government fully fund education, my landlady get a personality transplant, and my non-boyfriend get home from Iraq in January.
12. What about yourself will you be changing? Like Nobody, I'd have to say my size comes first. Second, increasing the frequency with which I paddle around on the water. Third, but not necessarily priority three, would be increasing the time I spend in a more calm state.
13. What happened in 2006 that you didn't think would ever happen? My niece took up the bassoon. I met the non-boyfriend, someone who really does like me for me. I decided to take up the oboe again. I decided to go to Norway. (Okay, decisions aren't actions or events, but they were significant to me.)
14. Will you be nicer to the people you care about? I will continue to plague those who know and love me by perpetrating random acts of Mrs.-Fixit-ism.
15. Will you dress differently this year then you did in 2006? Probably not, unless I do change my size, then only because my fat clothes no longer fit me.
16. Will you start or quit drinking? No. I prefer to keep my drinking steady, slow, and enjoyable.
17. Will you better your relationship with your family? Yes. That's been on the upswing for years and shows no signs of abating.
18. Will you do charity work? I'm a teacher. It's inevitable in the course of my job.
19. Will you go to bars? Yes, also inevitable as a result of my job. :)
20. Will you be nice to people you don't know? I'm usually pleasantly detached. I don't know if I have it in me to be actively cheerful and outgoing to strangers on anything more than a need-to-be basis.
21. Do you expect 2007 to be a good year for you? Yes.
22. How much did you change from this time last year till now? I dropped 20 pounds last winter. I got calm so I wouldn't have a stroke or die of high blood pressure. I rode my motorcycle thousands of miles.
23. Do you plan on having a child? Nope, knew that since I was 15. No longer an option, thanks to the miracle of tubal ligation.
24. Will you still be friends with the same people you are friends with now? I am friends with everyone I've ever been friends with, except a few people from grade school. I may not see them for years, but I would be friendly if we were to meet up again.
25. Major lifestyle changes? The exercise thing. I bought an elliptical trainer so I could work out at home, and because it doesn't trigger the bursitis I got after totaling my car and whacking my knees up pretty well.
26. Will you be moving? NO! If I move again, none of my friends will speak to me and my back will officially move away to a skilled nursing facility.
27. What will you make sure doesn't happen in 2007 that happened in 2006? Drunkenly making out with older men who are ignorant prigs.
28. What are your New Year's Eve plans? None. Sleep and ignore.
29. Will you have someone to kiss at midnight? My cats, Buck and Molly. But I will kiss them before I got to bed, as I will most certainly by unable and unwilling to stay up until midnight.
30. One wish for 2007? Many trips with the non-boyfriend to fun, interesting, and hot-springy places.
