Happy New Year, everyone. The holidays are over, and it’s back to work for me come morning. My sleep cycle hasn’t really taken this into account.
Had a good holiday with the family and fiance – we watched the Doctor Who holiday special (hopefully I’ll get a review up on this soon), watched Ice Age 3 and messed about on the Wii. I got Wii Fit+ for Christmas, and it’s much more fun than I thought it would be. I still think the gym is better for pure calorie burning, but it’s a nice relaxed way of getting in your daily exercise or for when the weather’s too awful to even think of leaving the house.
2009 has been a mixed bag – while most of the time things have been good and time has gone quickly, when it went bad it really went bad. I’m still reeling from some of the worst moments.
2010 will hopefully be happier. =) We’re in a much better financial situation this time round – we’ve just bought a new TV, and my next big purchases are planned to be a digital SLR camera and driving lessons for Dave.
I’m not one for resolutions really, but I’ve set a few rough guidelines.
- Finish my manuscript, “The Network”. This has been really difficult… after what happened with “Dragon Tamers”, “The Network” is very difficult to work on. Once it’s done, my secondary project “Saint” should be a lot easier. It’s just a matter of getting it written and then I can move on. Now that I’ve (kind of) adjusted to working full-time I’m hoping I’ll be able to find the time to write more.
- Get more toned. I’m at a healthy weight, so it’s not about shedding the pounds – it’s just about toning up so I can feel better about how I look. I guess I’ll have to get that gym membership I resolved to get last year. :P
Aside from that, the future is just a bunch of plans that may or may not happen. Getting a car would be nice, but I’m quite terrified of driving so I’ll just let that happen when I’m ready for it. Travelling is also on the agenda so once Dave and I decide on a band we both enjoy we’ll hopefully go see a gig. That all depends on what’s going on at work, though.
I hope everyone has a good year. What are your resolutions?

You make a good point, but have you actually thought about how it might affect other people? I’m not saying you are wrong, I just need to identify that there’s more than one side to this story.
