2002, more of the same

My New Year’s Eve was full of drunken cheer and merriment. Now, for your drunken cheer and merriment, here are some resolutions I have made for the coming year. (For the “drunken cheer” effect, while reading these resolutions drink large quantities of bourbon.)

I resolve to make it a habit to go to bed much earlier than I generally did throughout 2001 (and most of my natural life, for that matter).

I resolve to keep my trash/dishes/laundry situations on a much tighter leash than I have in the past.

I resolve to let food go bad less frequently, or at least not feel as guilty about it when it does.

I resolve to finish unpacking from when I moved in fifteen months ago.

I resolve to decorate the walls of my bedroom with tasteful posters and prints, because them walls are lookin’ bare.

I resolve to soup up my desktop computer so that it becomes a multimedia supermonster.

I resolve to stop buying so many damned comic books.

I resolve to use various pieces of exercise equipment to give myself rock-hard abs, or something to that effect.

I resolve to go to a dentist.

I resolve that I will take the next step in figuring out what I want to do with my life and how to proceed in that general direction.

I resolve to allow people to read my novel.

I resolve that I will have read the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy before the second part hits the big screen.

I resolve to get my damned eye fixed, because it be buggin’ Sandy out.

I resolve to spend at least half an hour per day drawing.

I resolve that I will make 365 Daily Hey entries in the year 2002, even if it means I have to write 100 entries on December 31 in order to catch up.

There it is. It is all out on the table. Will I be able to keep any of these? Probably. Many of them are vague enough to be kept no matter what actually happens. I shall revisit this list at the end of the year to see which I have kept and which I have broken.

364 to go!

Edited on January 2 to add more resolutions!
