Well, now that Christmas is over (more or less) it means that New Year's is fast approaching. You know what that means......
New Year resolutions.
Yes, those evil things......and so I'm thinking what I could do (or attempt to do) in 2006. I have some ideas, which I'd like to float, and to ask what others think might be good ideas.
1)get used to talking on the phone. I hate talking on the phone, and I don't know why. Well, apart from the fact that I can't see the other person, so I find it that much harder to read them and their body language, and I therefore don't know what I can and can't get away with saying. You also loose the ability to use your hands to wave around, which is something I do like to do when I get into talking.
On occasions I do get into chatting on the phone, in which case I can be on there for over an hour, but it happens very rarely and I think this is wrong. (in otherwords I was on the phone this afternoon and think that I should have done better than I did)
2)not use the words "dump him (or her)." I've had to use them on a number of occasions in conversations this year, and I've (usually) felt uncomfortable in using them. Admittedly there are times when they have to be used, but that doesn't change the fact that I don't like to use them.
3)oh drat.....what was number three.......there was a third one. But I've forgotten it. I'll remember it soon, and then I'll list all of them round New Year's, then you can all watch and see if I keep them!!!!
And now I really should finish up, as I'm being dragged round the sales tomorrow by my mum..... anyone in Guildford keep an eye out and you may see me!!!! (unless we go to M&S up in the Meadows, Camberley)
