Let Her Go

I bet y'all were shocked not to see some cheesy, optimistic NYE/New Years Day blog post from me. I started one, and by started I mean I wrote the title. Then poured myself a glass of Prosecco and started playing with all my new makeup. 

I had left my laptop open and one of my ex's (I know, I know, they are piling up at this point) saw it and thought he'd start it up for me:

So...Another New Year has come and gone. I keep saying to myself that this year is going to be different..I am going to magically transform and be a better person than who I was from the past year. Looking back on the past year though it seems that a lot has stayed the same but at the same time, EVERYTHING is different.

Hmmmm. He might be able to make a career out of impersonating me someday if I become when I get famous, if he works hard enough at it. Then he said all I needed to do was link in some song I'm currently obsessed with and talk about my new favorite tv show and the blog would basically finish itself. Have I become that predictable?

Like everyone else in the world, today I logged back into my work email, started cleaning the apartment, dusted off the juicer and resolved to do things differently this year. Eat healthier, be awesome at work, stop dating unavailable men. That's the plan. 

I wouldn't say 2013 was bad to me but I'm happy to let her go. And excited to start again. The American is in town, just like last Christmas, but this time he's not here to see me. Life keeps moving forward (seemingly with lightning speed these days) and the one thing I'm doing differently this year is breaking up with the past. Oh, it'll always be there, like that ex-boyfriend you just can't shake. Until one day, you wake up and realize his birthday was yesterday. And you forgot. 

The past is in the rearview mirror, what matters now is the road ahead. :) 

Ps: This show is awesome!! (and perhaps the reason I didn't have any time to blog the past couple of days): Les Revenants

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Wishing you all peace, love, happiness and all that good stuff. 

Sullivan out.
