2007, eh?

A new year. A new blog. We’ll see where this one goes…
Despite the fact that the year has started out on the absolute worst possible note (Mom has been in the hospital since New Year’s Eve and won’t be coming home - yes, that means what you think it does), I have so many plans for ‘07.
- Get my financial status back in shape.
- Build an actual emergency fund (I’m opening a high yield savings account at Emigrant Direct or HSBC Direct with my tax refund)
- Get off my ass and get the hell away from Game Crazy (I stuck around there out of convenience, laziness, comfort, and the fact that I had a flexible schedule so I could help take care of Mom - though I guess that last part is a bit moot now)
- Stop wasting money on so much pointless shit (this includes games and eating out)
- Finish what I started over two years ago with my weight loss. I’m 1/2 of the way there, and even backtracked a little with all of the stress of the past few months. I’m working on sucking it up and whittling away that last chunk of flab. I want to be down to 140-150 by summer’s end. That’s supposedly my “healthy” weight range.
- Read at least one new book a month. So far so good:
- World War Z - finished while in Rochester, NY for New Year’s
- The Millionaire Next Door - working on this one right now
- Crank out a new website design every 1 to 1.5 months for Logikai as per Malfoy’s plan. My first design is due in a week or two - we’ll see if I can pull myself out of my design slump of the past 1-2 years.
- Actually maintaining a blog for longer than a month…
- Other random crap I can’t even think of right now
We’ll see how much of this goes according to plan…
