Relationships. Career Networking. Proper Diet and Exercise. How to get along with your Spacely Sprockets boss*. Let's face it, self-help books are very trendy even if more and more people are reading "War and Peace" via Kindle now.
And, since I've already wasted some precious time on this Saturday night by watching a Jewish satire of "Dexter," a 'Star Trek' opera sequence and a cello/orchestra take on the kitschy '80s hard rock anthem "The Final Countdown" as performed in Kipsala, Latvia, on Youtube, posting portions of a list seems like a simpler way to post today's blog entry.
There are actually 24 things on the whole list; I've decided to divide them up into 12 items for my two blogs.
Here is the first part of the list:
1. Get a girlfriend
2. Write second draft of novel you've been kinda/sorta working on since March.
3. Exercise/join a gym/anything but power yoga
4. Move out of current zip code of residence (yes, that's why the U-Haul truck is pictured above)
5. Take more photographs, especially of old things
6. Write some more poems; Nikki Giovanni had to start somewhere
7. Write second draft of memoir that was typed up last year, after all it might not get published for 24 years when mom will be 95.
8. Put photographs up on Facebook
9. Be more organised (we're using the British spelling to get more hits from the UK).
10. Listen to more vinyl; we should find a copy of "Some Girls" by The Rolling Stones.
11. Write a full-length play; anything has to be better than the failed soap opera satire I wrote three years ago.
12. Learn how to socially network via the Internet.
