New Year, New Goals

Today is January 9, 2010

Really? Twenty Ten? I can’t believe I’ve made it this far. Let alone the rest of the world, I could have sworn we’d all be dead by now. Either at the hands of a zombie apocalypse, some crazy world-wide epidemic, or even thermonuclear war. But then again what do I know, Nostradamus I’m not.

But anyway,  here’s a quick recap of ’09: Got hired by That One Company after temping there for more than a year; Parted ways with a girlfriend of three years;  Fell in love all over again with The Massive; Kicked started a career in writing; Followed The Crew to Chicago, Denver, New York, and Chicago again; Got touched by the economy; Picked myself up by the bootstraps; Enrolled in college; and Finally found gainful employment. Busy year, eh?

But that was the past. It’s all about the future now, and I’ve got big plans for this year. I’m going to buy a new (to me) car. I’m going to move into a new (to me, probably) apartment. I’m going improve my personal brand and get paid for writing. I’m going to get my associates.

There are a few other things that I want to do in the next 365, but I’m going to keep those under my hat for fear of jinxing them. But lets just suffice it to say this will be a big year for me. I’m going to make things happen.

Carpe diem, y’all.
