Resolutions

Ahoy hoy everyone!

Hope 2013 is starting out great for everyone out there! Mine was spent with close friends, food, booze and games. It was fun and a great way to start the New Year, even though I am absolutely tired today, heh. It's not quite over for me yet either as there's a big dinner planned for supper in a few hours with my family and apparently other big meals during this week.

And this is a perfect way to segue into my resolutions for this year.

I usually don't do this, but this year I have a few small things I want to improve upon and they are achievable, so I thought I'd write them down so I could look in on them when I needed a reminder. as a bonus, I'll vaguely split them into my favourite sins, cause well I feel like it....

Gluttony

 So over Christmas I went to visit a really close friend (also the person that drama was revolved around in the past, I'll get a little more into it later). Had a great time, and as usual, with her, gluttony is a sin we enjoy a lot together. It's a surprise we do not end up weighing 500lbs. Although over the past week, I did add on an extra 9lbs. It's not too much, but I want to nip that in the bud. So after the holiday meals are done, it's back to eating sensibly and exercising. It's something that I usually do, but I do fall off the horse often, and I want to try to keep it a little more constant this year. This out of all my resolutions should be the easiest to maintain as long as I'm healthy and no "pains" re-occur.


Sloth

I can be a very lazy person, I know, shocker! I also know it won't change overnight, but I do want to be a little more active. Whether it be at home and definitely at work. I always do what needs to get done, but I want to procrastinate a little less. Concretely, that means picking a task at work that needs to get done and just work on it until it is, even if I have plenty of time to do it or if it's tedious. As for home, it means spending a little less time online and doing other things. Now my home is far from disrepair, but it's little things like even just playing more of the games I have collected over time. The internet has become a crutch for me and while not at addiction level, it's time to re-discover some other old "loves". Whether it be movies or games or whatever might strike my fancy.

Lust

Well this resolution is a bit of a stretch to call it lust, but I have a theme going dammit and I won't stop now. This will be the hardest resolution to keep since a lot of it is base on emotion. Essentially, I need to think about what I want in a relationship. I've had lots of drama this past year, but more fun and happiness. So while I don't regret a single second, I do need to think things through. the first step to this is to truly be happy single for a bit and the hard part, is to be ok with it. I do think I am in a better headspace thanks to 2012, I just need to 2013 to cement that in. As I said, this is the tricky part because emotions are always a bitch and you never know who can catch your eye and turn you until a babbling idiot (as opposed to my regular idiocy).


So there you have it, my resolutions to try and curb my favourite sins somewhat. While I will still indulge in them (especially the first and last :D  ) I will do my best to follow these resolutions and hopefully be an even better Bo Bo at the end of it.


Hope everyone's had a great New Years Day! Cheers!

These are just a few of my favourite sins....

Ahoy hoy everyone.

So I had a friend visiting the city for the first time this week. My first out of town guest and I got to play tour guide! was a little nervous, I would hate to be a bad host, but apparently, she had fun, so it's all good. the one thing I told her though before she arrived, was that she needed to bring her appetite, because if there's one thing this place is good for, it's food.

The awesome artery clogging Poutine!

And I love food.... which brings me to the title of this post.

fod and I have a love hate relationship. In that I love food, will try almost anything at least once. The hate part comes in food being so delicious, I sometimes don't really know when to stop. Often I will eat to the point of feeling discomfort, meat sweats (you're welcome for that lovely image) and just all around feeling of "Oh my god I will never ever eat so much in my life again!"

Gluttony, my friends, it's a sin. One that I indulge in frequently. I'm not proud of it, and it's a wonder I do not way 400lbs. But what can I say, it's all so nummy!

How can anyone say no to this...

And in the spirit of gluttony, the holidays are upon us... and I will be out of here for a little bit :) So just in case, have a happy [insert holiday here]!
