Can you believe it’s 2009? 2009?! Where does the time go.

In addition to a variety of other New Year’s traditions I didn’t participate in, I did not make any resolutions. I can’t even remember the last time I made a New Year’s resolution.

However, that didn’t stop me from making resolutions for a certain 10 celebrities.

Dave Matthews (& Co.) – I love you. Like, I really do love you, man. Your music has carried me through some of the darkest and happiest times of my life. Remember back in 2007 when you launched that petition to the Secretary of Defense about the medical care of American soldiers and the difference between pre-existing personality disorders and the illnesses related to their jobs? You should totally do something like that again. As if I could love you anymore. See you in April!

Lindsay Lohan – I do think you’re working to improve your personal life and I commend you for that. In 2009, maybe you should refrain from the public fighting with your family. Your message to Britney was great, but you also dragged in your father’s alleged secret child. Really, that probably just added to your stress. I wouldn’t dream of telling you to “make up” with your father – that’s none of my business – but I will say that it’s a lot less stressful to deal with certain areas of life when you don’t have the burden of family discord to deal with. Maybe a truce? Counseling? A more defined parting of the ways?

Stephenie Meyer – I jumped on the Twilight bandwagon later than most folks (this past Sunday, to be exact), so I just learned about the Midnight Sun leak and how it affected your frame of mind and creative drive. I’m so sorry. In 2009, I suggest working on those issues, finishing the book, and publishing it. Not only because I am an insanely selfish reader and totally in love with Edward Cullen (which, speaks volumes about my own state of mind, I’m afraid), but because I genuinely do think it will bring you peace of mind. Writing is therapeutic, as you well know.
