New Year's Wrapup
So, here's the delayed recap of 2003 entry that every other journaler has already done, but I didn't yet. Such is life. I made two goals this time last year, and I met one, and the other... well, we'll just not talk about it. Much. I had this whole TrimTim inituitive thing and I hit it head on: working out (okay... I went to the gym four times. Good use of my money, huh?) and eating better. And I actually DID lose about thirty pounds, and people were starting to notice, and I was feeling better, and even didn't spend all summer sweating like a creepy perv in a porno theatre. And then... I dunno. I lost focus. I'm prone to that, you know. Sometimes I can barely foc Anyway, so I gained all but about five pounds back. I thereby consider the year to not be a total failure in that department, but of course, there is work to be done. I'm not ashamed of my weight, but I know I would feel better if I lost weight. It's hard being fat, y'all... and that sweaty perv thing? It's back. I hate it, and that's the number one, grade "A" reason for losing weight, right there! My other resolution/goal? To post in my journal everyday. That lasted until April, I think (it's late, and I don't feel like digging). I posted daily, including weekends all that time. Then, I had a weekend that was a little, um, off tha hook, if you know what I mean, (and I think you do) and didn't update one Saturday. I did not cheat and edit a timestamp or something lame... I just revised my goal to post every WEEKDAY, except for holidays. And I did it! I posted something here everyday. Every. Single. Weekday. What did I post? Some great entries, if I do say so myself. And also some okay entries. Some funny stuff, and some sad stuff. I also, on days I didn't feel like journalling, posted SHIT. In fact, if I look back at the entries over the year, it's become obvious to me that the quality of the journal as a whole is comprimised by forcing myself to post. I guess I'm just not talented enough to produce a funny, thought-provoking entry every day, or perhaps I'm too lazy, but I'm not going to be trying this year. I'm not leaving. God no. I need this thing as much as it needs me, and I really love it. I WON'T, however, be putting something up here everyday. I don't know how often I'll post, but it won't be daily. Probably four times a week or something. I'm allowing myself to skip a day, but not too many. We'll see how that goes... I'm also toying with the idea of reworking the whole site with a blog for short bursts of content, AND a journal for more lengthy entries. Perhaps if I did that, I could post daily in at least one of those two places. Don't know. We'll see. So, thanks for reading me daily. I'll still be around! Posted by timbrat • 07:52 AM
