It’s late, I can’t sleep, and my mind is racing a million miles a second. I figured that since this is the case I would write out a list of things I’d like to do in 2009. Before I go any further, I need to clarify: these are NOT resolutions. Resolutions (if you recall) are things that people break. I don’t want that to be the fate of these items, and if I don’t call them by the “r” word, maybe I’ll actually succeed. Following so far?
- Sell my first screenplay.
- Finish my second screenplay.
- Sell that one.
- Produce my short film that got rejected by the Columbia College Practicum.
- Write a third screenplay.
- Ice skate.
- Take a road trip with friends.
- Find a job that parallels my interests and be able to keep it.
- Continue my webcomic.
- Draw a new one that’s been kicking around in my head for some time.
- Go on an honest to god date. You know, where you dress up super nice and drink wine.
- See at least 12 bands in my library.
- Cook more. (I’ve cooked more this year than before just in these past few months!)
- Go to a rave.
- Do my part in making the production company I’m a part of the big thing this year.
- Go to at least 2 conventions of any kind and get my picture taken with someone “famous.”
- Go to comic con.
- Record an episode of Geek Troika at each of my co-hosts’ places.
- Get to writing that fourth screenplay.
- Submit my writing to competitions.
I definitely plan to add to this list as I think of more things. There’s so much to do this year and only 365 days to do it in. Not much time, if you ask me. Oh yeah, and if you enjoyed this list, make your own and share it. I kind of like the idea of being accountable to the internet on this one.
You forgot something important there, buddy boy.

What did I forget, exactly?
I can knock a few off that list for you:
We'll get a bunch of people together and take a road trip to California for comic con. Then you can write a screenplay about our experiences on the road and they'll make it into a best selling movie. We can also go to concerts and ice skate on the way. Well, maybe.
Also, I would take you to a rave if they still existed, but I don't think you'd want to be hanging out with a kandi kid.

I like your plan. A lot.
