LIKELY TO FAIL

Start a retirement fund
Probably not ever happening, but at least I have life insurance?

Finish writing the first draft of Rue's story
I've been thinking about Rue more often. Maybe I'll move this back into "I care" zone again.

Finish writing Dragon Age 2 fanfics for Evangeline
Definitely do not give a crap anymore. I will type up the notes I have laying around for posterity's sake.

Go to Disney World with Sylithrandir
Probably in about 4 years, so this I will probably fail.

Create 30 brand-new prints
So far I have made 1 on my own, and released another thanks to deviantart. I don't know if it's worth it to try for 30 since nobody buys what I already have. For personal reference, they were Datura and Bloody Melancholy.

Even if I did go to Japan, not sure if I'd want to do this.
