One Last Game to Play

I never posted this at my other, soon to be closing, myspace page. But, I will post this last game here... Why the fuck not, right? I have nothing to hide from you all. So, this shall be my last survey. They get a tad pretentious, and sometimes they depress me. Here we go!

2008! It may or may not be great?

1. Will you be looking for a new job?
Yes… It’s time to move on. I made my final decision on this matter before I left here for the holidays. Whether I find a new ship to jump too, or not, I will be on my way out.

2. Will you be looking for a new relationship?
Depends on what you mean by new relationship…. New friends, sure. As for dating? I think I shall keep going it alone. People suck, and I am always victim to the “something better” syndrome. I’d like to say that I am pretty fucking good…. I’ve got some great qualities, but I lose a lot. There is always someone better. I just can’t compete. Fuck. That, and it doesn't help that I am not that attractive. Did I mention that people suck?

3. New house?
Possibly… more than likely. If not, a new place to crash. I have some economic issues that need to be dealt with first.

4. What will you do differently in 08?
I don’t know. I might actually, ummm… no, I won’t do that. Well, I might…. Nah. I think, maybe… hmmmm… no. I think I will try to go to bed sooner. And, I plan on being more on top of things. For example, I will be on top of my job search. I’ve begun the resume writing process.

5. New Years resolution?
Nope. Fuck that!

6. What will you not be doing in 08?
Ummmm…ummm… not thinking about how it sucks??? Yeah. That!

7. Any trips planned?
Czechland in the summer. I hope. I really, really hope. If not, just various road-trips here and there.

8. Wedding plans?
I don’t plan weddings.

9. Major dates or thing on your calendar?
Hmmmm…. Let’s see… June something I leave central Illinois and hopefully I get to head to the woods of Wisconsin for the summer… then, ummm… I don’t know after that.

10. What can't you wait for?
Mid-west Beer Fest… now, if I can get the tickets… But, there is always Racine.

11. What would you like to see happen differently?
I would like for all the children in the world to join hand in hand for world peace.

12. What about yourself will you be changing?
My clothing, daily… Wait, I used this one joke before… Ummmm…. How about my shampoo. I’ve been using Pert for so long. Maybe I should look into some other brand. But, I think I should look into a complete change with a doing away with some bad habits while I get some new good habits. Now, If I can just will myself into doing away with the bad habits.

13. What happened in 07 that you cried about?
“They took the bar! They took the whole fucking bar!” I didn’t cry about it, but I am beginning to believe my father when he said, “Maybe, Joe, are you are not destined to have anybody. My cousin Joe never married.” Good old cousin Joe.

14. Will you be nicer to the people you care about?
Hell no! Yet another really stupid question... this implies that I treat people horrible like. I don't do that.

15. Will you dress differently this year than you did in 07?
Hell no! Jeans and Orange T-shirt, Baby!

16. Will you start or quit drinking?
Quit drinking? Are you fucking kidding me?

17. Will you better your relationship with your family?
Okay. Is there an issue I need to know about?

18. Will you do charity work?
I guess.

19. Will you go to bars?
Is… ummm… yeah.

20. Will you be nice to people you don’t know?
No. I like to shit on everybody!!! What a stupid question.

21. Do you expect '08 to be a good year for you?
I don’t set up any expectations… So, you know, if it is good, it is good… if not, it isn’t. I would go for mediocre.

22. How much did you change from this time last year til now?
I am “Just” Joe and have been for centuries.

23. Do you plan on having a child?
For dinner? I am not a cannibal.

24. Will you still be friends with the same people you are friends with now?
I do have issues with communication. I think once I leave here, it will be like I just disappeared. I will lose contact. In some ways, I like that idea. It's like a clean-slate. Let's focus on the here-and-now, and not on the past. But, I will do my best. I have met some really good people.

25. Major lifestyle changes?
No.. yes… no… yes.. What does this mean? I might, gads… Do I need to say it? Exercise???? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!! Funny.

26. Will you be moving?
Yes! YES! AND, YESSSS!!!!

27. What will you make sure doesn't happen in 08 that happened in 07?
Let me think about 07 for just a smidge… hmmmm… ummm… Can’t for the life of me think of anything. I will prevent global warming… Wait, somebody on that? Shit. Nothing happened to me on 07, really.

28. What were your New Years Eve plans?
We had our annual drink until you puke party. I didn’t puke, so I better keep partying.

29. Did you have someone to kiss at midnight?
I kissed my Champagne glass… actually, it kissed me. We kissed. My beer glass was jealous. Stupid beer glass, you know you are the only one for me.

30. One wish for 08?
I wish… I wish… I wish… I wish… That… ummmm… I can finally make sense of it all, and find the place I can truly call “home.”
