I've never made a New Year's resolution before, but some of those look pretty darned tempting.

...

And I think you were wrong about Kitchener. I'm liking it here.

hmm, the other night Mike Malloy theorized that "consecrated dirt" meant "some demon had urinated on it." ... perhaps he was on to something.

* Destroy someone's mind using only your eyes and words.

That'd be "let your parents read your fiction", then?

Happy New Year, Warren. :)

* Spend at least 12 hours as an alien being.

Isn't that the definition of "being an office drone"?

Happy New Year, and hopefully by the end of it be seeing YOU in a Previews entry...

* Understand in your heart that the Dog is the natural enemy of the Human.

It's all a cunning trick conducted by Cats to occupy the Humans while they are busy infiltrating every sphere of Human influence.

Are you truly in league with them Mr Ellis? Can you afford to live in a world largely populated by cat doors and patrolled by Felix and his cute-yet-ultimately-evil kind?

Felix is just the foot soldier. Hello Kitty gives the orders.

I can probably work half of those in today. This might have to become a list of habits rather than one-time events.

I made him look at my spaceship. I strapped him to my apparatus and taped his eyes open with Scotch tape. I gave him swigs from my space canteen and told him everything would be all right, once he got used to the geometries.

It's like watching someone in DTs; that's what it's like for most people to look at my spaceship. It takes about four days for human eyes to get used to it. If you don't end up a drooling idiot first.

You bet your ass he's marrying me after all the trouble I went through.

I've had a feeling that 2007 was going to rock. Waking up and reading this has only served to further convince me of that fact.

Thank you, Mr. Ellis, and have an incredible New Year!

Well, that's a lot more fun and interesting than any resolutions I've thought about.
