Resolutions anyone?

Every year I resolve not to make a resolution. It's a tradition since I've never kept any resolution I've made, oh except this one, which really isn't a resolution since I'm not doing anything...ah....you get my point. Anyway, watching Oprah on my DVR tonight with her big BEST LIFE show for the new year hit a nerve. She's gained 4o lbs, I've gained 20 lbs, why? Yes, we both probably ate too much and didn't exercise enough, at least I know that is true for me. But why? That was her point. It made me stop and think, and cry and realize there is something missing in my life. When I figure out what that is I'll let you know. I'm going to work on it. It could have something to do with all the whining I've been doing lately--just ask Lily---my good friend who has been listening to me ad nauseum for days now. She deserves a medal and a bonus.

No-name date update: Something weird happened that day.....I put on a pair of jeans for work (it was Saturday, official jean day) that I had not worn in a long time. I was remembering this person had given me a business card months ago when he stopped by Bookmarks to say 'hi' and I wondered what ever happend to that card. I went to work, prepped the staff to get his name for me when he arrived.....we were all just gabbing when I reached into my back pocket and lo and behold, found that damn business card! So he was nameless no more but I still was dreading the evening as our only interaction had been library-type business. We did go to a movie (of my choice which I'm pretty sure he hated) and all I can say was the whole time I was watching the movie I was thinking about how I was going to get out of going to dinner afterwards.....so uncomfortable.
