The List
I want to create a list of goals. I don't have a clear timeline in mind. These are not "New Years Resolutions," in spite of the suspicious timing. (I've never been a fan of New Years Resolutions, I think they're fucky and stupid. But that's just me.) This is more like a tally of accomplishments I would like to start working towards.
Some of these are ongoing, some of these are one-time things. Some of these could be completed in the next year, certainly not all of them. Some of them are grand, some most of them are stupid. Some of these I should be working on right now, some of these I can't start yet for a variety of reasons, but they're still important.
Honestly, I'm not sure what I'm doing here, anymore. This seemed so damned important just yesterday...
This is in no order whatsoever.
So an unordered list is in order!
Here's an oddity: Back in 2005 I wrote a post about being Restless. It's still an important piece of myself (to me, you might not give a shit) that I come back to from time to time. It occurs to me now that I've done most everything in there now. Not quite to the scale that leads to Ultimate Satisfaction and Tranquility, so I'm still working on it, but pretty close. It's helped take some of the edge off, I think.
So here's a new list of things to accomplish.
I can hope that it serves me just as well.
