I don't particularly care for labels. I like whisky, good music, the works of Jean Shepherd, and providing inspiration for my wife's erotica. Oh, and gardening. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️✊🏻ally

Not your fault. But maybe you can help me out?

So, this isn't exactly a resolution. But it is me trying to be less of a misanthropic jerk, especially for the sake of my wife and kids.

I'm trying to be more positive. I've found that increasingly since my 30s and especially now in my 40s, I'm becoming more and more a misanthrope and just generally negative about going anywhere and doing anything. And I need to break out of that, because it's a very negative cycle.

But as the new year approaches, the excitement is gone. And all I have to look forward to is packing up holiday decorations for another year, returning to work, and the omnipresent possibility of bad winter weather.

Maybe my lack of enthusiasm for the holiday is because the whole thing feels so anticlimactic after the stretch of excitement from Thanksgiving through Christmas. That was always my favorite time of year as a kid. Even as an adult, I can't help but look forward to it.

I think the closest is ever really got I to NYE was in late elementary and middle school. I wasn't old enough to go out anywhere, and my parents never went out either. But we'd stay up and watch Mel Brooks or Monty Python movies and eat junk food we never usually got to have. And then we'd go to bed

But even then, it's different.
If in being honest, of course I have tried to use New Years to make fresh starts on things. Usually my health and fitness. It has yet to work.
And I'm not against self-reflection. I'm a big believer in it. And even when I don't want to, my therapist makes sure I do.

When we were kids, several times our mom tried to get us to write journals at New Years. Getting us to do it was like pulling teeth. Even now, it doesn't actually feel like anything really new or different on January 1. Maybe it's because I'm a teacher, and so a new year feels like it begins in Sept
