what's the new years equivalent of "bah-humbug"?...

so this weekend has been fairly uneventful. i started organizing and straightening up my office area today, and trying to get all of my laundry done. rob went over to one of his friend's house to try and get some work done, so i got some stuff done while he was out of the way.
so this is the time of year when everyone starts making empty promises to themselves and each other because it's a new year and a "new start," giving us the chance to "better ourselves" and "motivate each other" into doing the crap we should probably be doing anyway. i'm sorry, but today is no different that yesterday which was no different that ten saturday's ago. my point is, this whole idea of a new beginning shit is just comical to me. if you need a reason to better yourself other than doing so for yourself, then i'm sorry, no matter how much, or in most cases little, effort you put into it, it's just *not* going to happen.
so, as usual, i won't be taking part in the whole making resolutions ordeal. or, maybe i will....yeah...i hearby make the resolution to continue hating most of society, people in general, and the criteria by which we are made to live.
wow...got that all covered...looks like i'm ahead of the gang! BOOOOYAH!
maybe next year i'll make it more challenging...but i doubt it.

ok, speaking of new years and all that hooplah, i have a question. where did this superstition of eating black eyed peas on new years day for good luck come from? is it just a southern thing? or is my family just absolutely insane and it's not a real thing at all, i've just been fed a lie my entire 22 years of life?? i must know! perhaps google will have the answers, but if you have any commentary on the subject, please feel free to comment.

alrighty, well i must go check on laundry and then play me some soul calibur goodness, and of course, kick rob's ass like always. w00t! alrighty, later!
