• Should I do a photo a day?  Probably, right?
• maybe write the occasional essay or something longer and more structured than a blog post with bullet points
• I'm definitely paying no more attention to celebrity news.  That one's for sure.
• I'd like to eat better and work out more - cheesy, but always-legit resolutions.
• shoot more.  If I had one resolution to keep in mind, it'd be this one.  So easy to let the little parts of life interfere with this goal
• get back involved with the movie community
• keep in touch better, both with new people and old people - facebook, texts, calls, notes
• read more
• sleep less
• cook more
• waste less time dicking around on the internet

That's sort of a resolution list and sort of a musing list on things to keep in mind as the new year starts.  If I could put "be smarter" on there, i would, but I'm trying for concrete things.  The many "mores" on that list have to be offset with some of the "less" bullets, and even though there are fewer of them, I think that with even an hour less dicking around online a day, for example, I could accomplish things.  Things like going to the gym can force the "no dicking around" rule, too, and once the spell is broken, it's easy to not get back online - witness the last few weeks and my total absense from the online world.  Today, for example, I try to see off friends and family as they head out of town, and in between, I do a big old backup and update of everything that I can backup and update - webservers, phone, PCs, laptops... you name it.

Anyway, some foods for thought, anyway.  Happy 2010.

It's not that it really makes that much difference to me whether it's the weekend or not, but there is something about the relaxed nature of the weekend that makes things seem easier, even if I'm doing the same crap (which I will totally be doing).

Anyway, lunch with Tony at Warner today was cool, then I went and finally got my car washed on the way to Crown Bar where I had to look at their broken TV.  It's a beat up old thing, but I brought it home to look at because they don't want to buy a new one.  If it's broken, it goes to the recycle guys immediately - if there's anything I've learned from my massive cleanup of the garage, it's that I need to throw things away faster.  And that I don't need any more outdoor extension cords.  And that I do need more power strips.  Point taken.

So yeah, make the weekend memorable, kids - you don't get this one back.

edit: do it with A Plus D's "A Very Bootie Christmas" from 2006.  This has made it into my high rotation for the Christmas season once again.  Go figure.
