List of Doom updatey type thing
It's been a whole year since I started my 101 things list! I just updated it for the last time this year (my week ends on Wed. so I normally update it on Wed. or Thurs. each week). I had intended to do a nice little summary complete with percentages and whatnot of how I fail, but... meh, I'm tired. Besides, why should I steal Nam's fun?
I think it looks a lot worse than it actually is. I don't have an "in progress" designation, that would make it look nicer to the naked eye, methinks... I need to fill in the many blanks left, obviously (I left those on purpose because I knew I'd want to add to it as time goes on), but I also need to devise a better "grading" system for myself. Some of those things are pretty time-consuming and should not be the equivalent of flossing my teeth once, you know? So yeah, something to think about. I'm afraid I won't be objective, though; I'm already pretty sure of some I don't think I'll complete, so I likely wouldn't change their "point" values. Ha! I dunno, maybe I'll just modify the grading rule that says I have to do it all over again if I fail...
There have been times I've felt like this is stupid, why do I bother, who cares if I do it or not, GRUMBLE WHINE MOAN BITCH COMPLAIN ETC. I allow myself to sulk for a bit, but I don't abandon it. I remember that it has made a difference. That there are times I feel lazy and if it weren't for the list, I would give in to my inner sloth. The things requiring money have been put on hold, for reasons kind of out of my control, but I do intend to get to some of those next year. Other than that, it's mostly my own laziness stopping me. I mean, come on, cleaning out a junk drawer? Why haven't I done that one yet?
Anyhoo... I'm going to bed. I'll bore you all with my weekend to-do list tomorrow.
Happy New Year to those of you living in The Future!
