My husband has posted his goals for 2009. Which means now I have to, because I'd hate to be thought of as shiftless and lazy. Even though I am shiftless and lazy. But this way I'll be shiftless and lazy...but with goals!
1. Stay Not Dead. Last year was the Year of Hospitals for Will and I. I think our next trip to the ER qualifies us for a free sub. I don't even like subs.
2. Continue Our Childless Streak. I've managed to go 36 years sans baby, so I bet I can go one more. I've thought about having kids, sure, but to have a baby to score a Mommyblogger gig or just so people won't sit next to me on an airplane seems tempting. But I think I can borrow - that's right, not steal - borrow - someone else's kids. I'm an Aunt, so I've got that going for me. Plus the kid that belongs to her is pretty awesome.
3. Write more. Do I need to explain this? I write a lot, but I waste a lot of time. There's a way to be more productive, and it involves less planning and more doing.
4. Be a Better Citizen of the Internets. I believe that I don't blog in a vacuum. There's nothing more irksome to me than bloggers who don't reach out and participate beyond their own corner of the web. So I'm gonna be the change I want to see. I don't think Ghandi was talking about the Internet, but it's a start.
5. Do More of This:
