3. 2. 1. Contact!

I wisely decided to ditch my old blog because making a log of experiences of Internet dating is SO 2002.

I don't know why I want to be a blogger. Kind of like my yearning to be a NPR listener
-> when I'm listening to it I'm think "awesome, I'm so super smart for listening to NPR. I'm so tapped into the news of the world. I'm so sophisticated!" But the updates are all about conflicts overseas, oppressed people getting shit on, and how this world needs to be saved from pollution and overpopulation. This makes me really depressed to be a human being and I usually don't like being made depressed. So I change the channel.
.
Also in the same way I want to be a jogger.
My life in 2006 is going to be proactive. I'm going to get shit done. I'm gonna be a real go-getter.
I kid you not.
I'VE made lists.
yes. LISTS.
---
THINGS TO GET DONE IN 2006.
  1. obtain a Mac computer. - preferably a laptop. more specifically a MacBook Pro.
  2. get headshots duplicated. - you know, the ones I had made almost 2 years ago? yeah, those ones.
  3. get an agent. - dependent on item #2.
  4. start messing around with video stuff. - make film shorts.
  5. start yet another improv project.
  6. Travel more. - setting sights on Ireland, Japan, LA, and Texas. Maybe SF too.
  7. start running again.
  8. buy road bike. -sweet, sweet road bikes... how I love thee.

THINGS ALREADY ACOMPLISHED IN JUST THE FIRST 18 DAYS OF 2006

  1. bought an iPod.
  2. got a new coat.
  3. expanded pitiful wardrobe

As for item #1 on the first list, I have already gotten the ball rolling to achieve this goal. The plan is for my parents to help me pay for it. I'm leaning hard on the fact that this month is my birthday month.

I've got a work bonus coming to me and I plan on using all of the money towards making item #2 come to fruition.

I've already met with a friend of mine and we are totally going to make sure that item #4 gets done.

Item #5 has been brewing in my mind for quite some time now. I just need to figure out who I want to do it with me... and then, of course, see if they have the free time to do it... then, after a couple of my initial picks decline, figure out who I want for their replacements... then stumble through a few rehearsals... then find one more replacement after one person drops out after unfocused rehearsals... find a director to focus rehearsals... and, finally, find a space we can perform this awesome concept show.

I've got May or June slated as my time to visit Ireland. Which reminds me, I need to check out my vacation days situation so I can also have the time to travel out to Montana if it happens again this summer.

I also hope to turn this blog into a vlog.
