TUBOB Does New Year’s Resolution

So, it is heretofore resolved therein:

*I'm gonna write a screenplay and sell it for mid-high six figures in 2009.
*I'm gonna find a love that makes the angels cry with envy.
*I'm gonna lose 30 pounds of stupid dead pizza fat and gain 10 pounds of ripped, hard spiritual muscle.
*I'm gonna take at least one multi-day canoe camping trip this summer and again face my fears by camping deep in Grizzly bear country but I might not stay up all night by a campfire shining my Petzl constantly into the dark silhouetted woods.
*I'm gonna exercise something somehow on some kinda schedule sometimes.
*I'm gonna invent a new urban/suburban/exurban slang word for the kids to say to replace "bling" maybe something like "scrap" (Shiny CRAP). "Yo, dog, dat scrap is fly, yo"/TUBOB. More here.

Question: What have you resolved to do?
