My Resolutions for 2006
Just a thought from 28 December 2005 about , , .

Last year I made some resolutions here on the ol' dotcom. Let's recap:

1. Sell the car. Check!

2. Launch JPG. Check!

3. Quit smoking. Check! Then ... uncheck. Sigh.

4. Kick ass at work. IMHO, Check!

5. Remember to treasure every moment. Doing my best.

6. Be more patient with those who mean well but communicate poorly. Doing my best.

7. Take Fray to the next level, whatever that is. Does putting it on hiatus count? If so, check.

8. Self-publish a book. Check!

I guess I'll keep those "doing my best" ones on the list for this year, as well as that pesky unchecked one. And here area few new ones for 2006:

9. Get more serious with JPG Magazine.

10. Say yes more than no. Much more.

11. Keep feathering the nest.

12. [This one's in my inside voice. I know what it is. You'll see.]

Update on my 2005 Resolutions
Just a thought from 7 March 2005 about , .

Updating the list:

  1. Sell the car. Check. Thanks, Craigslist!
  2. Launch JPG. Check.
  3. Quit smoking. Check.
  4. Kick ass at work. In process - more to come.
  5. Remember to treasure every moment. Doing the best I can to remember.

Since it's still the first quarter of the year and I seem to be doing well, I think I'll add some more.

  1. Be more patient with those who mean well but communicate poorly.
  2. Take Fray to the next level, whatever that is.
  3. Self-publish a book. Or two.
  4. Keep not smoking. Keep working on JPG. Keep moving forward, always forward, never back.
