I resolve to stop having meaningless sex in 2010, so I suggest you pay me a compliment or get me liquored up ASAP

Of the things I said I wanted to do in 2009 I didn’t do too badly, actually. Some of these things are the same, and some are different.

Get my body piercing license! – My biggest goal, which I hope I will be able to do in a year, but that will depend on when we can get the apprenticeship going and everything. I’ve been accepted, it will happen, but I have to wait until my teacher has the time to teach me and we have paperwork to figure out and all that good stuff. I hope to be done with my 1000 hours required to get the license by the end of the year, but we’ll see.

Get my driver’s license. – While we’re on the subject of licenses, this would also be a good one to get. It was part of my list of things I wanted to do in 2009 too and something I did not end up doing. Being here in Juneau, however, with access to cars may make this goal a little more attainable this year.

Write more. – The last half of 2009 wasn’t filled with as much writing as I think it should have been. Having time to myself up in Juneau is going to help with this, I think. This also means focusing more on this blog, maybe implementing another posting structure like I did a long while back where each day I have a topic I focus on posting about.

Comment more. – Commenting on other people’s posts is something I always mean to do but don’t always do. I know how much I love comments, even if they are just a few words or a couple sentences, so I like to spread the love around, but I don’t always have the time.

Figure out my job situation. – I would love to get a job with an online sex toy retailer which I could do from here while I pursue my apprenticeship and figure out my life. However, I know this is probably unrealistic, so I need to figure out what I can do in Juneau.

Get out of debt. – Or at very least reduce the amount of debt I have. Getting a job will greatly help with this, as will living with my Dad and not paying rent. School loans are the big thing here, unfortunately, but not the only.

Be more active. – This last year was not one of great activity, quite the contrary, and already in the last month since I’ve been here I’ve been out more and doing more things, or at least it feels that way. I want to be more active in general, socially as well as physically. I also want to get healthier, start going to the gym again, do more yoga, establish a routine, and lose weight. I’ll never be skinny, and I don’t want to be, but there’s healthy fat and unhealthy fat for my body and I’m in the latter phase right now.

Find a partner. – Specifically a female one, preferably here in Juneau, but I know that’s asking a lot. Who knows, though, it could happen.

And, last but not least…

Continue to learn and grow. – I think it’s nearly impossible not to do this one every year, but it’s something I am making a goal every year as I want to be consciously aware of it and work on it, not just have it happen to me.

    I’m bad about commenting on posts too. I often don’t know what to say even if I really enjoyed a post.

    Good luck on meeting your goals!

    Great blog- I love your writing.
    I’m fielding submissions for a tongue-in-cheek relationships website, featuring anonymous anecdotes from women on sex, dating and relationships — and I want you to participate!
    Every woman has at least one hilarious, jaw-dropping or cringe-worthy anecdote to share. Think of yours and submit it by January 31st. I’m sure you have a good one!
    Submission Guidelines
    The best anecdotes focus on YOU. For example, if your boyfriend cheated and you pulled an Elin Nordegren (of Tiger Woods fame), your anecdote should build up to the shocking moment you struck his SUV with a 9-iron. In other words, highlight what you did that was shocking, funny, emotional, embarrassing, etc. — whether you regret it or would gladly do it again. There are no taboo subjects. Feel free to express yourself.
    • Detail a specific incident or encounter
    • Build up to your leading moment
    • Limit submissions to 250 words

    Please Note: By submitting an anecdote, you agree to the Terms of Submission. All anecdotes will be completely anonymous. Your email address and/or personal information will never be shared or published. Submissions may be edited for grammar and clarity.
