Things have been going well, lately I’ve been strangely focused and *gasp* doing things I set out to do.
\nThe year’s only just begun, and here’s what I’ve accomplished so far:<\/p>\n

* Lowered my sugar intake to under 50g per day
\n* Eliminated caffeine from my diet
\n* Stopped using “snooze” on my alarm
\n* Changed the time I get up from 8:00am to 6:30am
\n* Going to yoga class once a week
\n* Going to the gym for an hour every other day
\n* Scanning and filing paper as it arrives
\n* Registered with national junk mail blocking
\n* Consolidated two computers down to one (ok, I’m still working on this one, but I’ll be done this weekend)
\n* Replaced my cellphone with one that is reliable (my Razr had bad battery life and a habit of turning itself off)
\n* Scanned hundreds of slides for my mom (though I still need to mail her the CD)<\/p>\n

What’s next?<\/p>\n

Plenty.<\/p>\n

* Scan bazillions of photos, slides and negatives from Papa’s house
\n* Sort\/scan\/toss 10+ years of paper (I have boxes and boxes just full of paper)
\n* General cleanup, give away or sell stuff I don’t need
\n* Produce at least one creative project a week
\n* Learn to play keyboard
\n* Learn to program Cocoa (and possibly iPhone when SDK comes out)
\n* Fix the damn MAME machine
\nAnd many more…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
