Why?

why do people wait
until january first
to fix what ails them?

Enough with the resolutions already. If you noticed your pants wouldn't button back in October, why did you wait three months to cut back on the calories and get some exercise? What stopped you from practicing more kindness last June? Maybe I have no appreciation for the symbolism of New Years - I just think we'd all be better off if we addressed our "issues" as they crop up.
