(To be read in Happy Harry Hard-on’s voice:)
Look.
Next year’s gonna suck. There’s no reason it wouldn’t.
And maybe that’s ok.
There’s so many problems that they all blend together in a huge mass that blots out the sun and we’re all hoping for that one switch that flips things different.
But there’s not one.
Maybe we needed this to sober up about that.
TEN THINGS TO DO BEFORE YOU HIT FORTY
1. Begin to put money in the bank and learn to leave it there
2. Date the right person
3. Get your own place, stop having room-mates
4. Get out of debt
5. Get that body you always dreamed of and maintain it
6. Surround yourself with people and knock them out with a single 360 degree roundhouse kick
7. Start to accumulate a fortune and wealth
8. Learn to dress well not sexy
9. Accept that you are an adult and start living as one
10. Let go of the past and look forward to the future
