jcfialaHappy New Year Everyone!
Well, last year was a bit surprising, wasn't it? My one new year's resolution from the beginning of 2003 was to lose some weight, and last year by gum I did lose some weight - ninety pounds, in fact. Fantastic!
So, last year would have been a banner year for myself, if it wasn't for losing my job in November, which just completely screwed everything up!
But we'll try a few more resolutions for this year, shall we?
1) Lose more weight. Losing 90 is good, but my goal weight requires me to lose another 90 more. So, that should continue.
2) Gain a job! I've slacked off a little these last two weeks on my job search (going down to the 5/week contacts required by unemployment insurance) with the holiday, but starting next week it's time to send out two or three times that a week. Also, I need to continue to learn new things - I have a ton of 'learn Blah in 21 days' books, and I need to work on them.
3) Get back to my writing. I've got a sort-of-contract to write a book for one publisher, and I'm talking with someone else about doing some supplementary work for another game. My sort-of-publisher (we need to sign a contract!) has been rather understanding about my life crashing about me, but it's time to focus down, remove distractions, and get to work on that.
So - time to get to it!
