3...2...1...

I'm usually pretty good about admitting when I have a problem. I am prone to addiction and even when I know that I should be doing something else, I just can't pull myself away from what ever it is that has gotten a hold of me.

And so I found myself doing something drastic to protect my sanity.

I deleted my Minesweeper records.

Go on. Laugh.

You've obviously never played almost 100 games of Minesweeper in a row, knowing that it's 3 in the morning and it's the last thing you should be doing.

So now that I have consciously deleted the records, I've decided that I'm going to see how long I can keep it that way.

YOU DON'T CONTROL ME MINESWEEPER.

A fine start

So despite my valiant efforts to make a post every day and my quite serious intentions to do so, I completely forgot.

Am I surprised? Not really. After all, yesterdays post would simply have been about how I messed up starting the new year already.

With, wait for it, a library fine. Oh yes. I checked out some DVDs last week and with the holiday, the 3-day DVD limit simply escaped me.

So $2 to the library today.

I guess that means I paid two dollars to watch Rise of the Lycans. And by watch, I mean have it on in the background while I waste the last days of the year using the internet.

Maybe next time.

Happy New Year

I suppose that it might be a nice idea to restart this. A resolution if you will.

Perhaps it might have been better, I don't know, to just make a new blog instead of constantly trying to breathe life into a dead data hole, but quite frankly I don't know that I could come up with a title as clever as this again.

So let's take a look at 2009. I went to school, wrote papers, did homework, finished finals. Then it was summer! And of course, I was back in school writing paper, working and finishing finals.

Hmm. About the same.

And then in the last third of the year I did...the exact same thing as before.

So as I'm sitting watching the Twilight Zone marathon, thinking back on the year, I don't feel that I can honestly say that I accomplished much. Where is my adventure?!

And so this is the outlook I'm going to take for 2010. I'm going to take chances. I'm going to not hold back.

I'm going to finish all of the things I always said that I would.

I'm going to not idly let my goals slip away.

I'm going to make my own adventures.

I'm going to be more myself than ever.

Take that 2010.
