I am going to eat McDonald’s every day, spend as much time in front of the Television as humanly possible and smoke two packs of cigarettes a day. 

I understand why people use the first of the year to start anew. It’s usually a very good starting point, and if successful, a really easy anniversary date to remember. Thirteen years ago today my oldest and dearest BFF quit smoking, my mother quit smoking 25 years ago today – I still smoke – I’ll quit too, when I’m ready…

While I applaud those successes and all the many other successes people have experienced over time, I’ve never been very good at keeping resolutions myself. Except for 2007, when I declared for all to hear, “My New Year’s resolution is to NOT do anything different this year” and then I up and quit my corporate DC Comics job dream job in March, lost thirty  pounds and by June was hosting a television show for the Travel Channel. Well, I guess I really didn’t keep that one either…

So this year, I’m making an anti-resolution.

Happy New Year all.

With 2013, I hope all your dreams and wishes come true.
