"Continue to enjoy how miserable many conservatives and virtually all racists are right now because of who is in the White House." -bea
You've got about three years, so make the best of it and last but not least...........enjoy!
(You should have added to conservatives and racists: moderates, especially moderates, who feel they were sold the ultimate 'bill of goods')

Continue to enjoy how miserable many conservatives and virtually all racists are right now because of who is in the White House.
And to finally learn how to correctly spell the word "hypocrite."

Well I lost 65 pounds in 2009... my goal at the beginning of the year was to lose weight. So now for 2010, my goal is to get my personal trainer certification and help other overweight / obese people lose weight. I figure that I've walked a mile or two in their shoes... I know what it's like to be huffing and puffing after just walking up a flight of stairs. I want to show them that it IS possible to make a lifestyle change and live a happy, healthy life without totally depriving yourself. Here's to 2010!

NOT GET wrapped around other people's politics.... sure wish I could get away from my stalkers.

RI, you're the best. Simple and true. I love everyone. Must be the Demerol.
spacehog 4 years, 3 months ago
Well, not employment, only because I feel that work is prostitution. Maybe I'll quit huffing glue and paint. I'm starting to have memory problems. I called Ask A Nurse and they told me amphetimines might help. Lately, I've been forgetting my name. I think someone stole my identity. By the way: "When you know as well as me You'd rather see me paralyzed Why don't you just come out once And scream it." -Bob Dylan, "Positively 4th Street"

I believe all that loving and fishing....and hunting, along with beer, scotch, good barbeque...that all goes without saying. That stuff is more of the natural mandate of life.

Eat better, lose weight, finish getting out of debt, keep my job, not let other people's ridiculous politics make me crazy, get married, have kids, live a long and happy life. Ah, who am I kidding? None of that will ever happen.
autie 4 years, 3 months ago
To stay away from an advice that comes in the form of a Bob Dylan lyric. To never shop at Yellow House. And never answer the phone when my cuzin calls.

Graduating and moving. It's time to be done with Kansas for a bit, and try somewhere new.
Donnuts 4 years, 3 months ago
Stay fit, bike a lot, run a lot, swim a lot, do yoga, paint more, write more. Get married, maybe (this up coming year). Play guitar and saxophone more.
