This is going to be the year that I listen to my coworkers and see what all this fuss about “hygiene” and “bathing” is about.
This is going to be the year that I stop snickering every time someone brings up my boss, Mr. Ballcock.
This is going to be the year that I stop trying to live up to my father’s impossible expectations. He’s just going to have to accept the fact that I’m not a magical flying elf that can grant him wishes, and I never will be.
