resolutions and resolve

Thank you to those who showed up for my pre-birthday party. That was fun. I always pull myself into knots of anxiety over any size of gathering of my friends (Which one of you flakes will show up? Will you end up killing each other or staring awkwardly at the table?) and I'm glad that those fears are rarely justified. Or that I was drinking too much to notice. Either way is fine with me.

So, in honor of my early birthday, I make resolutions:

  • Stop being so lazy I don't wash my face before bed.
  • Write 200 words a day. 200 words that aren't blogging or work. Okay, sometimes blogging can count.
  • Do not clean the kitchen today. It is Jake's turn.
  • Become a generally more perfect human being. If that's possible.

I have been running out of creative-type projects recently, which has left me with excess energy for things like worrying, obsessing, and buying things I don't need. Lately I've been cringing over every thing I do and say. Even now. Even now. Or obsessing over work and how to make everything more efficient. Not healthy. I seem to have lost some interest in knitting, it may be time for a small break from that to... do what?

The three of you that read this: What do you think? Any good creative projects for me?
