So my new years resolution

They kind of suck, we make a promise and we follow through for a week or two and then we're done. So I decided to make my resolutions fairly easy and enjoyable to do to ensure success. Watch more TV, actually see some movies still in the cinema, hang out more with friends, read more books, easy peasy, but not exactly things that change life.

So I had this brilliant idea when I was doing my hair and sent a picture of it all crazy and wild to a good friend of mine. I am very VERY paranoid about my self image, hair must be in place, makeup applied, outfit agonized over and never ever look like I have a hair out of place. This is a general attitude since I'm a control freak and am constantly worrying what other people think of me. This is stupid, because by the time you reach your mid thirties, you shouldn't give a rats ass. So I'm going to try and do something simple as uploading a picture a day of me for the next however long the rest of the year lasts (better late than never). The pictures are going to be of me looking stupid, or silly or with my hair a mess, food on my blouse...all those little things I work so painstakingly hair to avoid people noticing that I am less than perfect.

So basically, I'm trying to learn to think so much about what other people think of me, and learn to laugh at myself a little more. I may add captions, I may not...depends on how much time my crazy life leaves me. Like right now, I have four minutes to get this shit done because I have to leave to pick up someone, so without further adieu....
Me looking fairly normal.
