to be a good dad.
to be a good husband.
to rule.

Started with a bang. Someone put me in such a bad mood and ruined my evening, I just want to hide under a stone forever. Happy new year.

i should do more useful stuff, focus on the main things and not just on details.

i think i will try and be less kind this year and think of myself more
+ give up smoking (again)

- give up smoking forever. it does no good to me
- drink way less than I do now
- continue therapy and win over my mental issues
- travel to South America (my plan is Peru)
- be nicer to Susan
- stop doing things that I regret doing
- be nicer to myself and value myself higher

Work more on my PhD
Listen to more new music
Concentrate more on my own music
Find a girlfriend that won't drive me utterly insane

I think I am going to have an overall New Years resolution to be healthier and lose weight which is pretty boring, but I am going to achieve this (at least for January) with a raw diet. No cooked or processed foods. This does not include meat and dairy. So I will be eating a shitload of fruits and veggies. I'm kind of doing it on a whim, but I really want to try it because it is supposed to make everyone feel really healthy.

1.Spend more time with you people.
2.Lose weight.

Usual shit from me, less smoking and all that cack. Also, reduce internet faffing and write more sestinas.

Also, I'm going to steal Slavo's and be nicer to Susan, though I'll have to find a Susan to be nicer to.

i'm susan!

Stop watching TV apart from things that I've planned on watching, that are likely to be good.
Read more.
Listen to albums that I haven't listened to for a while, and get rid of them if they're no good. I'm nearing saturation-point.
Get more sleep.
Find a comfortable middleground between having no routine at all for getting my work done and having a routine which is off-puttingly strict.

To not get too fcked up next new years.

The standards:
Lose weight/Gain stamina
Drink Less/Play More

I think instead of trying to face those issues head on, I should be doing other things that would result in their achievement. The head on thing doesnt work.

I like slavo's resolutions.

Hm, I wrote down some random goals on a sheet of paper the other day - they can be my resolutions:
---reformat computer
---exercise regularly: start with once a week each, weights at home/long walk
---get new pants
---plan summer stuff early: hikes in beautiful BC mountains, small trips to nearby cities IE portland
---learn how to ride a motorcycle/get license/get bike

To gain more discipline and structure, since i'm too unorganized and lazy. That's where the less bud part comes in..damn it.

Hi Susan! How's it going? I'm sorry I wasn't nicer to you last year, I promise I'll be better this year.

Glice never ceases to amaze me with the usage of words I've never heard before. In the two sentences above, there are three of this kind: cack, faffing and sestinas.

1. Eat more healhily
2. Record more music.
3. Stop being such a lazy git.
4. Find someone to share my life with.

Faff is a brilliant word. Everyone should use it.

I predict the triumphant return of pottering about
