Yeah. So.
It’s time again.
Time to make promises. Time to let my fingers write checks my ass has to cash.
I don’t like resolutions. I like goals. I like achievements. “Be it resolved” reminds me too much of people dickering over trifles in a city counsel meeting.
Nevertheless, I’m not so crass as to suggest everyone else change the well-accepted terminology that’s been established for this exercise, and I’m not so original as to be able to resist just such a Jan. 1 post… (I am, however, able to be late about it!) So here we go!
1. Love: Keep all my existing love, family and friend relationships strong and healthy.
2. Health: Play ultimate at the same or better level all year.
3. Blog: Write on my blog often enough that I’m not embarrassed about when it was last updated.
4. Photos: Get every single image in my photo library titled, tagged and rated.
5. What: Are you serious? That’s impossible.
6. Answer: Yes it is, and yes, it probably is that, too. But I’m committing.
7. Rebuttal: Whatever dude, you’re high. But good luck.
8. Work: Meet Hop Studios budget and project goals.
9. Health: Maintain a healthy weight.
10. Travel: Visit three countries and get passport stamps from each.
11. Finance: Buy real estate.
12. Music: Take drum lessons.
Yeah, that’ll keep me busy. I ought to get a bumper stocker for my car: “Ask me about my New Year’s Resolutions!”
