Today, I will burn the midnight oil.
Ever have a BIG IDEA get really, really excited — and then go to bed?
It’s not even 8 and you’re pulling the sheets over your head.
What is that? I’ll tell you:

Today, I will discard my Victim card.
Yes, that one. The one that’s creased and tattered from overuse. Or maybe you’ve laminated it. That way you’ll always have it. You never know when someone might try to take advantage of you.
Today, you will destroy the V card. This will be hard as likely it’s your favorite card. But just like you did with your Banana Republic, Macy’s, Dillard’s, J Crew, and Victoria’s Secret cards, you will cut it up.
Do better. Shred it and toss the pieces into separate trash bins. (You’ll feel like a renegade and shredding’s fun.)

Today, I will LOL.
Have you ever seen Daryl, the silent laugher? He opens his mouth to laugh but nothing comes out. Where did the laugh go?
Or maybe you know his friend Bill. Bill says “That’s funny” but doesn’t laugh.
As Igby says to Sookie in Igby Goes Down “Instead of saying someone or something is funny, why don’t you just laugh?

Today, I will write in CRAYON.
I will change up my routine and break all the rules.
Instead of calling out sick, I will call in rich.
I will turn off the the tv, and turn on music.
But not rap music because that’s not music.

Today, I will see a movie by myself.
Preferably, not a romantic comedy.
On Valentines day.
Like I did some years ago.

Today, I will make an Executive Decision.
That decision may be to stay in bed all day and eat a whole box of bon bons and drink a six pack of Mountain Dew but that’s okay. It’s a decision.
As long as you stick with it.

Today, I will dig up my past.
We’re experts at digging up everyone else’s past (ex lovers, bosses, high school flames), but today it’s an inside job.
Anyone who says digging up the past isn’t healthy hasn’t dug in the right places.

Today, I will get excited like a dog.
Even a dog without a tail shakes it’s whole body.
Even a dog with three legs walks faster than most people with two.
Even this sentence has an exclamation mark!

Today, I will reveal my secret powers.
But first I will take a nap.
On second thought, maybe I’ll start tomorrow. It’s already 2:43.

Today, I will wear my favorite shirt.
Nothing says CELEBRATE like when you look in the mirror see your bright face and say “I’m HOT!”
I own it.
So why then do we put the shirt back in the closet and save it for a different day?
