Welcome to 2008
Thu, 03 Jan 2008.
Boy howdy. Today is January 3rd, 2008. As soon as midnight rang, this was the only song going through my head:
Death Cab for Cutie - New Year
It’s not like I’m trying to be all cynical about the occasion –perhaps even declaring midnight on New Year’s Eve to be an arbitrary point in the Earth’s orbit that changes every year– but the actually event of 11:59 becoming 12:00 is terribly underwhelming. To enjoy it, you must focus on the longer view and look at least a few months into the future. Expecting to have something akin to an orgasm at the stroke of midnight is probably just wishful thinking (unless you’ve actually planned the orgasm ahead of time, in which case: kudos to you).
In 2008, I’d like to:
- Have a set of goals for my health and fitness
- Have a set of goals for my money
- Expand my social circle further in Seattle and perhaps the US in general
- Travel some more before I get too old/responsible
Need to work on these goals.
never to old to travel dude, look at my dad. All you have to do is exchange the priority of family/stable financial position for travel travel travel jet ski travel. And his got 3 kids!
