9 Realistic New Year's Resolutions

Chances are you've all completely failed at all your New Year's resolutions by now.

Well, good! Who needs 'em? Round IS a shape! You know plenty of stuff already!
And really, if God didn't want you in debt, he wouldn't have given you so many credit cards!

So I say, let's try some realistic resolutions. Stuff that tells the world, "Hey, I'm BEING the change I want to see... in my spare time and when there's nothing better to do."

 

- Celebrate the little things.

Preferably with cake.

 

- Stop Saying "That's What She Said,"

0.o

... at least so often.

(The order was: "Happy Birthday Oliver, below that 24.")

 

- Drink more water.

There's water in beer, right?

 

- Be more enthuseas... inthusiast... positive.

Also work on spelling.

 

- Change all my passwords to something besides "password."

Sure. That works.

 

- Pluck

 

- Learn the names of my coworkers.

Nicknames count.

 

- Win more staring contests.

...

...

...

And finally, for a little fun:

- Find a new hobby!

P.S. In the spirit of continued learning and broadening our horizons, I found you some take-home reading:

The Final Countdown

Look, bakers, I'll be the firth to admit I'm not so great with numbers...

 

...but something here just doesn't add up:

 

Major props for helping "Keydunce" celebrate such a special milestone, though.

The kind of milestone, in fact, that most of us will spend the next few seconds trying to pronounce.
(I'm going with "three-und." Or maybe "Thirnd.")

 

Hey, is it just me, or have you noticed families having LOTS of kids these days?

Not to mention getting super lazy naming them all.

(Johnny Five's sister? We can only hope.)

 

Ok, now you're just making stuff up.

 

Maybe if you skip the number superscript all together...

Nope.

 

Well, bakers, I guess you're just going to have to spell them out. That way there's no chance of any of these piddly little technical errors, you know?

I don't... how could... WHY... Oh, never mind.

Happy Liberation Day, Kanaan.

 

Thanks to Kajal, Kailey S., Anony M., Moira B., Beth M., Tyffani C., Alison U., & Crystal T. for putting two and two together... and getting all sixes and sevens. (That one's for you British mates. Smoochies!)

P.S. I found the COOLEST toy for helping kids learn their numbers:

Transforming Number Robots

These would make awesome cake toppers; then you can surprise them by showing the number is really a robot. As of this writing they're on sale for over 50% off, too. SCORE.
