I have set a new-decade resolution to cease and desist with all gossip. Saying something critical about someone, particularly when I would not say it to the person directly, is cowardly, tasteless, and insane.
I need a form of self-flagellation if I mess up. Something that stings, is relatively simple to execute, but not corporeal. I am open to suggestions.
In the meantime, if you hear me say something about someone that I wouldn't say to them, feel free to give me a quick slap.
Happy new decade!

Fund a Kiva loan every time you mess up. It's a costly mistake ($25/pop), but it at least goes to a good cause! Or donate to a cause on Global Giving!
(oh, and HAPPY NEW DECADE!!!!!! The 30's are the perfect time to set up shop in Humboldt.)
Happy Birthday! I can't believe you are only now turning 30, can that possibly be right?? Maybe you've got your dates mixed up.
Anyway, happy day again - I hope it was a good one!

Our code for quitting complaining is, "At least we have our health."
If it gets repeated enough, it is an annoying punishment. Maybe you could say, "He's a Good Kid." That's the code for we should stop gossiping now in one of my social circles which will remain nameless.
that's a great resolution! happy birthday. that first suggestion is brilliant.....kind of like a bad word jar for filthy mouth kids! i love your "about me".....too good!
