A: Now that it’s the new year, I’ve decided to turn over a new leaf.
B: Yeah? You finally decided to wipe the slate clean?
A: You got it! I have a new job, I’m living in a new city, with new friends! This is my opportunity to make some small changes in the way I live my life.
B: So what are you going to do? Take up an art class or something?
A: Well, first of all, I’ve decided to stop smoking. It’s not that I’m pinching pennies or anything, it’s just that I’ve been smoking since I was sixteen, and I think it’s time to stop.
B: I’m with you on that one. Anything else you’re planning on doing?
A: One last thing, I’ve decided to come out of the closet.
B: It’s about time!
