Monday, January 05, 2004
i've been absent for a bit, concentrating on having fun with a visiting friend. and it was fun. so much fun, and so much of what i needed. i've had so many thoughts though, during her trip, and since then. ideas of resolutions, top ten music lists of last year, ways to become more creative and waste less time, ways to involve myself in more life. all those tasks you have to push yourself to do. unfortunately, every choice to do leaves a hundred things undone. it is a curse perhaps, that we can't do it all, and yet have the vision to see what we're missing. or maybe just a reminder to do all the things we want to because there are so many.
what would i like to do this year?
start to feel even remotely competent with a paintbrush
work on my writing, actually getting competent stuff down, instead of this off-the-cuff writing i've been doing for five years
figure out a few plans for my life, where to go, what to do
solve some of my basic loneliness by relying on the wonderful friends i have
see the horseradish festival
settle some of my nerves
but then, these are goals i've had for a month or two. i'll keep working on them. and i will have much to say this year.
