It's the End Of the World As We Know It

"It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine" - R.E.M.

At the end of every year, I always have this feeling that the world is going to end. It's total Chicken Little "The sky is falling" bullcrap, but still. And every year, I go through the same "If we survive, next year is going to be different! I'm gonna eat better! Exercise! Save more money! I'm gonna stop stressing about being the only one of my siblings who is single! I'M GOING TO BLOG MORE!" And then January rolls around, and I'm stress eating food from the unhealthiest places, binge watching Friends (again) and crying. All because Rachel got off the plane for Ross and I'm #ForeverAlone. Oh, and also, um...it's been 11 months since my last blog post, so there's that.

This year, it really is going to be different. I'm getting into the habit of preparing meals. I'm doing a 10K AND a 5K this month. And will then stop running because running is terrible. But I'll walk more, OK? And yeah, saving money is tough, but baby steps. As for the stressing about being single, meh. If it happens, it happens. So what if my sisters are married with kids? I can't change that one alone, and have yet to find anyone who wants to help me change it haha. I can't promise I'll blog more, because I rarely have interesting things to talk about. And now that Friends is on Netflix, the binge watching MAY still happen occasionally. (No matter how many times I hear it, I never get sick of hearing Ross scream "WE WERE ON A BREAK!")

The long and the short of it is this: The world hasn't ended. Yet. Resolutions are dumb, but we as humans should all try to suck less.

Be excellent to each other,

- Kevin

(P.S. Yeah...Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure is also now on Netflix. And it's still awesome.)
