I resolve to 192.168.1.1

[dr4b]

I realized I wasn't doing new year's resolutions because I don't know what I'm doing with my life anymore.

These are the goals for this year (with some actual number goals):

1) Find a good job that makes me happy.
2) Continue working on meeting new people. (Meet at least two new people per month. Have at least 5 new "real friends" by the end of the year.)
3) Read more unread books, watch more unwatched movies. (2-3 books a month, 3 movies a month.)
4) Travel to 4 cities I've never been to.
5) Do actual baseball writing, not just occasional links and babblings. (1 article per three attended games.)
6) Write 10 new songs. Write one completely original song (lyrics and music).
7) Spend less money. Manage my possessions better.
8) Go dancing at least once every two months.

The joke goals (IE, these are the sorts of things I don't expect to happen this year):

1) Stop playing puzzle pirates
2) Stop posting long things on livejournal
3) See a baseball game in the Sapporo Dome
4) Lose weight
5) Clean my apartment

For 4, are there *any* cities in this country you haven't been to yet? (I can think of several you probably haven't been to in Canada, though I can't think of why you would want to go...)

Actually, there are plenty... I've mostly only been to places in the northeast, the northwest, and then a few scattered middle cities like Austin, Dallas, Detroit, Chicago, and Provo UT. Cities that I have never been to, that I have excuses for are: Las Vegas (never been there, it's close), St. Louis, Kansas City, Denver, Atlanta, Phoenix, Houston, Milwaukee, St. Paul, Minneapolis, San Diego, and probably others I'm forgetting (baseball). I'm trying to think if I have friends in any cities I haven't been to now, though. I don't think I do.

Then there are plenty of Canadian cities I could visit for the heck of it. I even have friends in some of them.

I guess I'd like to go to England or Germany, as well as back to Japan, but I doubt that'll happen.

If you do Minneapolis/St. Paul, you get 2 for the price of 1! I'd save that for december when you realize that you are behind in the goal.
