12 monthly update
Hi Kids,
another NYE, another semi random update.
(also music - Point Man, The Mark of Cain)
So... ummm... yeah. 2017...
Some of it was really good. The 5 or so months when work dried up completely can go fuck right off but a lot of the rest of it was pretty good. Got to do some Cons again and get my Geek Cred back up and managed to squeeze a trip up to Qlds in as well.
(then the promised work dried up and those holidays looked a bit foolish...)
Anyway, back at work now and 2018 is going to be 'really busy'.... (cough)
Still unpublished. Realised this arvo that today marks my latest 'if you have not heard back within 3 months...' So time to find a new publisher to throw myself at the mercy of. Ya.
Part of Living the Dream... sigh.
What else? Hmmm... Lacrosse... Played down in Scum Grade. Twas okay. League looked awesome all season right till the end when we crashed out in the semis. Sigh.
Hmmm... have at least been attempting to get lean and mean. Been using my GearFit like I should and walking heaps each day. Slacked off over Christmas but leading into those weeks. Cardo still very average and really need to do at least some weights but to be honest don't look THAT bad. Can't run so that is going to suck come lacrosse training.
Still single. Despite telling people that deep down I am pretty shallow I seem to still be cast as 'A Nice Guy'. Sort of sweet but Nice Guys Finish last. Then again not working for great chunks of the year didn't really help either. Bit hard to be witty and charming with an empty wallet to be honest.
So... to be honest not a BAD 2017. Lack of constant work was the main problem. Nothing else really went wrong. My parents are still both (realitively for their ages) fit and healthy and for the most part so are all of my friends (or at least that is what they are telling me). Okay, still not Living the Dream of being an author and still have yet to take part in a winning Lacrosse grand final.
So, crunch time - 2018!
I will;
Tidy more
Be more proactive with my writing
Push my way back into Div 1 for lacrosse (as Scum Grade sucks)
That sounds like a good list.
Also, get abs, get rich and fuck more often.
Okay, currently 1930 and 4 and a half hours left in the year. Goodbye 2017, Hello 2018 and LJ? Seeya in 12 months.
