Promises, Promises

uh-oh. it's time to ponder resolutions again. i loathe this time of year. i always feel like i want to jump off a really steep embankment. i wouldn't die though. i'd probably just twist my head around just so and be forced to stare at my ass for the rest of my life.

Listed in no particular order are all the promises I'll be breaking in 2006:

1. Exercise more

2. Eat better--that's not eat more, that's eat better

3. Submit something, anything, hell, even my name to a damned publisher.

4. Be kinder, i.e. more of a doormat than I already am.

5. Pay off my debts. Just in case that aforementioned mode of death starts looking good.

6. Stick to a daily schedule. Get up at a decent hour and look alive. Queen of the zombies doesn't count.

7. Get in touch with my feminine side. While I am a female, I feel like an impostor most of the time.

8. Keep better house. Seek domestic goddess status instead of poster child for the deadly sin of sloth.

9. Reach out and touch someone. Or someone(s). Make some damn friends.

10. Spread the love. Grow roots. Have a litter. Breed. Multiply. Populate the planet. Save the population.

11. Strive to love myself and accept that I am a total loser weirdo freak nut with a heart of gold.

Resolutions

A great philosopher once said, "Shit or get off the pot."

This is my resolution of sorts for 2005.
It's a schedule for my oldest five or six projects. These are the novels I want to focus on almost exclusively until I start on anything else. These stories are more than ten years old. Ug, that hurts typing that.

Kalynth Sun
Blade Dancer--needs a new title as there is already a work with this title
Kore
Saved
Hazard Street
The Tempest

We'll see how it goes and whether or not I can stick to this.
