grinninfoolePrimary Goal (because other goals depend upon achieving this one):
Get a job. More specifically, get a job that provide sufficient income to cover my half of Team Aguilar expenses. I'm currently going to look for a teaching job, one that will allow some for personal life with Millari, and also allow me to keep working at least one day a week at Modern Myths (Wednesdays would be best.)
Subsequent Goals:
Buy a new home with Millari. Beyond the money, this is complicated by the possible softening of the housing market, and our ability to find a home we like, where we like, that we can afford.
Get married. In many ways, the easiest of all, complicated by the fact that I want to have a lot of people there when I get married, and how do we pay for that, and when and where do we have it?
Non-Contingent Goals:
Write a book. I don't know right now if I want to write a novel, or perhaps a history. I have a few ideas which sound exciting to me, before I commit myself to actually doing any of them, but while this goal does involve some soul-searching, it's otherwise entirely under my control.
Play with Feisty for at least 10 minutes every day.
Exercise, at least 10 minutes every day.
Take Dancing Lessons with M on Thursday nights.
Learn Spanish
Looking over last year's goals, I see that I am repeating myself more than I'd like. I wanted to learn to speak Spanish, and to dance, and to write a book, last year. I did nothing whatever to accomplish these things. On the other hand, I have gotten my MA, made a lot of progress on my intimacy issues, proposed to Millari, become more financially independent, and I have started to plan the wedding. I shall review my progress in a month.
Coincidentally, I post this exactly a year after last year's goals. I am shocked that Will Eisner has been dead for a year, now.
