Been Vacationing On MySpace...

Don't know if I have any readers out there but I've been consumed by MySpace. A lot.

It all started innocently when I logged on to find some friends from Alaska. Two weeks later, and I have full-blown internet addiction. I guess there are WORSE vices to have, but this one's pretty bad. I haven't had so little sleep since I was partying full time. It's amazing how a few missed hours of sleep sometimes feel like a night of boozing it up...

So, my new found love for the internet comes with a price. And I'm trying to find a happy, moderate way to keep my health AND my sanity, but I'll have to see this one out like my other habits-- full-blown until I get sick of it. Good thing I don't have that many, eh?

Speaking of which, I've been getting a little sick of smoking all the time, so that's a plus. I'm on the path to cutting back even further, I hope. And I think I'll be cutting back on the drinking as well. I have to face facts; I don't like it as much as I used to. And getting FUBAR just doesn't hold the same romantic luster it used to when I was partying as a bartender back in the day (yeah, *waaaaaaaaaay* back in '04...)

I started working out. Just a little ab routine in the morning. I'm by no means fat, but I haven't seen my abs in, like, 4 years. Yeah, and I owe it all to 8 Minute Abs. So I should be Herculean in no time ("no time" being something like 3 months.) Well, maybe not that long.

I'm dreading the next few weeks. Money's going to be tight. I have to go to court in a few weeks for the 6 traffic tickets I GOT AT ONCE. And I've got to pay for the new expensive dentist bills I've just acquired (NOTE TO SELF: Do not let your boss refer you to his dentist, especially if he makes 10-15 times more than you do, AND if they shop in your high-end retail boutique.) Life sucks for me at this time of the year. Without fail. It's always those last few bills that pile up right before the end of the year. 'Tis the Season For Giving (Money to "The Man!")

Okay... Time to go. I'll be posting my resolutions coming up. That is, IF I can get off MySpace long enough to do it.
