// goals for 2006.home

o If you’re on this site it’s most likely by accident and you will surely want to leave now.

o I will begin this by saying (and if you know me at all, this is meaningless repetition) that I am an amazingly neurotic person. My life is governed by self-composed lists and self-imposed schedules. I have to keep myself constantly moving and accomplishing in an orderly fashion or I cease to believe I’m satisfying my goals for existence.

o So I began thinking about these goals. I generally write lists for the day and week encompassing the broad things I want to accomplish: Clean the living room, balance my bank account, read a chapter in my current novel of enjoyment, etc. But these goals are rarely the monumentally challenging kind; occasionally I’ll have myself reupholstering a couch or building some shelving, but really the list is more of a way to remember that the dishes need to be washed or that I am, in fact, allowed to schedule free time to play a game or read a book.

o But I want to remind myself to work on the larger goals, hence the reason behind this site and why it’s most likely not FOR you. This is my New Year’s Resolution site, of sorts. It is going to be a chronicle of everything I want to have accomplished by this time next year. It’s going to be motivation and a method for reward. It will include everything from mental, physical and social tasks for improvement to regimens of game-playing and movie-watching. It’s a gift from me to me to prove that I’m making something of myself, even if it is just for myself. (Coincidentally, it is a goal in itself as I’ve become dreadfully out of touch with site design since I shut down my Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan site somewhere around age fifteen.)

o So, dear reader, unless you both know me and care about my self-image, you’re not likely to find much in here to your liking. If on the unlikely chance, however, you satisfy the previous stipulations (or you’re just the type that likes to read random, self-indulgent crap on the Internet), I give you my monument to neurosis.
