Not really sure what I plan to get out of 2006, but here it goes:


1) Finish both my upright and cocktail cabinets.

2) Continue to succeed in school with high grades.

3) Find ways to advance in my current job.

Well, the first two are realistic.


I've never done well with the resolution thing.

800x600 seems to work for me.

Seriously, I'd love to start jogging again, but I work 10 hours a day (often including weekends), half of that on my feet, and am not sure my knees would appreciate it.
But wasn't it fun to think you won the lottery, just for a second there???

Probably the only one you guys care about, coming from me, is:

- More measured political discourse. Promise!

Some others:

- Finish my home decor projects
- Complete at least one short film
- Complete my cabinet design/build
- Lose 10-15lbs

That's all do-able.

All resolutions for the new year will be centered around my latest fascination.

-Become a sex toy for the Milton Twins.
-Reduce my time on-line and focus on other things (such as the Milton Twins).
-Give up smoking and regain fitness (so I can fully satisfy the Milton Twins).

And to clarify, I have no interest in baseball or baseball players.

1) Begin Exercising -
2) Spend more time with the family and hobbies.
3) Get my job hours under control in order to facilitate 1) and 2)

Were it not for my ingenious router filters I would have had to add:
4) Get BYOAC time under control in order to facilitate 1) and 2)  ;D

Well, I cant say "quit smoking" cause its been about a month and a half since I stopped (BTW this Firefox extension is awesome for those trying to quit)

I guess I'll say travel. I want to travel more while I'm in Europe. I've only got a few months left so I want to make sure I hit the places I haven been to yet.

Up until this point in life, I thought I'd been a pretty content person.  I've since learned that's not enough.  This isn't a resolution, just a hankering.  I've been hearing (for some insane reason) a lot of R.E.M. the past few weeks.  I'd like to give some of their wisdom a whirl, but I can't decide if I should be a shiny person, or a happy person.  Screw contentment ;D

Like Bones I'd like to reduce time spent online.  That by itself will basically ensure that any other attainable goal will fall into place for me.

That all sounds like too much effort.  I'd recommend that you just stand in the place that you are.

1) Gain enough weight to be buried in a piano crate.
2) I'm pretty sure #1 will take up most of my time.

I failed miserably. Time to get serious about it.
I've got a fever...

Falling is easy.  Getting up is hard.

Skating while fat is harder than getting up.

Actually, just tall and broad. I scare the hell out of the kids at the skate park. No one wants to get smushed by a 6-3 "old guy"

Well, I cant say "quit smoking" cause its been about a month and a half since I stopped (BTW this Firefox extension is awesome for those trying to quit)

I guess I'll say travel. I want to travel more while I'm in Europe. I've only got a few months left so I want to make sure I hit the places I haven been to yet.

Well, I did do a little a bit more travelling before I left Europe; hit Amsterdam for the last time and a few other places. When I got to the Pacific though, the first spot I hit was Australia (for 9 days). Good times. Now I'm looking to the Spring and whether I'm gonna try to see Japan, New Zealand, or the Phillipines...

You should see if you can get your case published in a medical journal.  I heard you look like you've got double the bones of normal people ;)

I succeeded with my resolution.  I've been shiny this whole year ;D

I don't do the resolutions.  I wanted to lose some weight this year.  I waited until November to start ;D  I suppose I could resolve to lose some more, but why put that kind of pressure on myself? 

Remember kids, set your goals and expectations low.  It makes them easier to reach!

I live by this code:
be an underachiever - that way when you do overachieve, it is that much more impressive.

Not really sure what I plan to get out of 2006, but here it goes:


1) Finish both my upright and cocktail cabinets.

2) Continue to succeed in school with high grades.

3) Find ways to advance in my current job.



well my projects are still not yet done and I've added restoring a Crystal Castles to the list

Have a 3.95 GPA and have 6 more classes to go so I should get my associates at the end of the summer semester...

Still working the same job, no advancement yet although with how I'm succeeding  academically they are watching me closely....

so I'm going to continue on my same resolutions for next year....
