Oh the randomness of it all

I tend to make too many excuses for the things that I like, for my guilty pleasures, for the lifestyle which I can afford, for the goals I am working on, but have taken me a bit longer to accomplish. While it is trite to quote a bad pop artist, but like Sheryl Crowe said, "If it makes you happy, it can't be that bad." I really have much fun indulging in my guilty pleasures and, while I think New Years Resolutions are self-righteously ridiculous, I feel that the time has come for me to make my first ever New Years Resolution. I will stop apologizing for the things in life that make me happy, and that are so uncool. First of all, the self-realization is manifested that I have never been, nor ever will be cool, I am a dork and must hold my dork head high! I still want to be Princess Lea for Halloween, I cheese out from dorky awfull jokes, I love to dance to gettin' jiggy wit it, Tom Jones and Neil Diamond. I love watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer, CSPAN, Check Please, Globe Trekker, Original Star Trek episodes, and yes, I do love Sex and the City. I feel sad if I miss "This American Life" on Friday, and feel compeletly daft if I get an answer wrong on "Wait, Wait Don't Tell Me." I deeply love making snowmen, quoting Monty Python incessantly, skater punks in the Mid-West driving the old folks crazy in grocery store parking lots, and I miss wearing combat boots bouncing around to the Ramones! I enjoy reading the CIA World Fact Book, dictionaries, Douglas Adams, Calvin and Hobbes and Shel Silverstein. So the truth rears it's ugly head, and I am not ashamed. I am a dork of massive proportions, and that is going to have to be okay.
