The Resolutions Will Not Be Televised

by on Jan.05, 2005, under Main

On this, the first day of 2005, I feel compelled like so many to title my post with a pun. I mean, make a list of my New Year’s resolutions. What do you mean it’s the fifth? I’ve had enough of your cynicism.

Monitors have resolutions. The UN has resolutions. I’ve never really been one for resolutions. Still, now is a time for looking forward and possibly sideways. Diagonally, if necessary. But mostly forward!

  • Update my blog regularly. Seems simple enough. I give it until March.
  • Finish editing my novel. Seems simple enough. It’ll probably take me ’til October.
  • Stop using puns. I was originally going to title this post “I’m Feeling List-less,” but that wasn’t quite as relevant. I give this resolution about 11 nanoseconds.
  • Go back to school. I believe there is nothing more important than – HA! Really had you going there, didn’t I?
  • Turn my web page into a leading center of commerce and scientific exploration. Wait, that’s Deep Space Nine.
  • Come up with some actual resolutions. This whole post really went nowhere, didn’t it?

So there you have it. Proof that I am not a resoluting kind of guy. I could mention my “to-do” list that would wrap around the planet three and a half times, but it’s full of terribly mundane things like “get a new chair,” “fix the broken fence,” and “put a person on Mars by the end of the decade.”
