New Year’s Resolutions
Saturday, January 6th, 2007It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything, and I’ve decided it was time I spruced up the place a bit and start posting again.
I sort of went on a mini-rant to Regan and Whitney earlier today about how New Year’s Resolutions don’t count until unless they are presented in a bullet pointed list, here are my New Year’s resolutions, in no particular order:
- Publish at least 52 posts this year and attempt to participate in this year’s NaBloPoMo (that is if they have it again).
I pretty sure I can do the first part but the second part may be bit ambitious. But I figured I would at least attempt it.
- Go on a diet, get buffed, and take fencing lessons.
After my plan of beating my brother senseless with a foam sword back fired on me, I figured it was time that I get in shape. I need the fencing lessons because my punk brother works construction and I have a desk job; there is no way I will be able to get stronger than him. Hopefully better swordsmanship will be able to defeat his berzerker rage.
- Acquire a Wii.
I missed out on acquiring this past Christmas. It was my fault that I didn’t get one. Initially I thought I would build up some serious good karma by letting all the little kids that wanted one for Christmas get one before I did. What, surprised by my selfless act? Don’t worry it didn’t last long, my stance on the matter changed as soon as I played one. I think my exact statement was, “Screw the kids! I have to have one!” Plus the more I thought about it, it wasn’t me that would prevent some kid from getting one, it is those damn eBayers. All I had to do then was not buy one from eBay and I would not incur any bad karma. Since then I’ve been hunting for a Wii.
- Sort my Warlord collection
It’s gotten out of control.
- Start cooking again
Google has totally spoiled me when it comes to food. Since I’ve started working there I haven’t really been motivated to cook my own meals. Why would I when I have chefs that are better cooks than me, cooking three meals a day? But it turns out, I don’t actually eat three meals a day at Google. And the money that I thought I was saving was actually being spent on dining out at night and on the week-ends.
- Take more pictures
Regan has taken control over all the camera’s in the house, which has led me to take less pictures in 2006. Not this year!
- Turn off the bathroom light
Warning, this was put on my list by Regan and I might not get it accomplished;-) The fan in the bathroom comes on when you turn on the light. For some reason, that little fan is the only thing that can wake her up from her coma like sleep.
