Mine:

stop smoking
spend more time with family
do more exercise
buy a new e-booker reader :p


And what are your resolutions for 2008?

Here is one of mine:

Make MobileRead better


Definitely I have to spend more time with my family, too, though. :o

Some years ago, I resolved not to make any resolutions. I've managed to keep that one ever since. :beam:

At least one of mine will be to finish learning how to do a good job of converting ebooks for uploading here and then to follow through on doing that for the ebooks I've promised.

I make mine on my birthday every year : e.g., I successfully quit smoking the last time on my 29th birthday. I would hate to tell you how long ago that was.

So hang in there Tad W.!

Mine
- Calm down
- Read more
- Acquire a Sony 505

BINGO!

Well, my no smoking vow was made based on price. I vowed that when cigarettes went to $3 a carton (not a pack!) I would quit and I did. That was quite a few years ago.

Well this one is hard for me. Spending less time on Mobile Read and work...Yuck! :laugh4:

Read more

To create the perfect e-Book. An impossible goal, but one can always try :).

To finally publish a black and white landscape calendar of Southern Africa. We are off to a stunning desert area (Richtersveldt) of South Africa on Saturday and to Southern Namibia. Fun 4 X4 driving and temperatures in the low 40's, centigrade that is. I have 3 images I regard as good enough so far so if I can get another one on this break I will be a third of the way there and on track to meet the September printing deadline.

Buy a reader and get a new job!

Quit buying or acquiring ebooks until I catch up on my backlog. (Bet you that I'll break this one real quick.)
Continue low carbing.
Turn my PC into a dual boot XP/Linux machine.
Get rid of my pbooks as I replace them with ebooks.
Use up my fabric and yarn stash.

2008 Resolutions

- drink more caramel thickshakes

- make beer

- make luuuurve, not war (What is it good for? Absolutely nothing! {Say it again, y'all!})

- become a Warrior-Poet, or at least always dress like one

- Adopt the calendar of the Theocracy of Muntab

- Talk less nonsense (except for when absolutely necessary)

- dreadlocks, or shave my head (again)

- find an escape from the Drowned Woods

-- take more photos, particular of people, and add them to my pinboard "Wall of Souls" {insert evil laugh}

- find out what everything means and write it down

- learn how to write not just for the voices in my head

- play the guitar...badly

- become a better, or at least less-annoying, person

- think about contemplating an attempt at considering the effort it might take to try and be taken at all seriously

- Did I mention the thing about caramel thickshakes?

Cheers,
Marc (Stop me if I'm annoying you ;) )

PS. - take more blue pills...or is it the red ones. Oh, look! A green one! {gulp!}

- Get back into better shape

- Start trad lead climbing again

- Not break anything next year

All three kinda go hand in hand.. hrmm.. or maybe Talus in Talus in my situation

Write a better novel.

Convert my novels to ePub.

Do at least one thing this year that prompts someone to say: "Dayam!"

Not mind if I don't actually get the "Dayam!"

Work out.

Work out until it shows.

Show my wife. :D

Keep working out.

1. manage my finance better (how ???)
2. study more :bookworm:
3. get back to train MMA
4. be more patient :smack:

And few more :)
First two are important and hard
to achive in the way
i want them to be :/

Well for me, I have spent the last three years becoming debt-free (was very hard work by the way). So my resolution is to STAY debt-free.

But trust me, after spending three years eating "beans and rice, rice and beans" to get rid of my credit card/misc debt, I think it will be pretty easy to stay that way. I definitely learned a hard lesson. So 2008 is my year to finally celebrate. Yay!

These are sort of more like "goals" than "resolutions," I suppose:

- Publish a paper in a refereed journal in Education

- Either get into the doctoral program in Education, or give up and get a job in the education field without the doctorate, or, failing either, get a non-education job that pays better than education sector wages

- Get my card game working online and printed & distributed (http://zigraphix.com)

Resolutions:
- Don't let the teenagers push my buttons so often
- Stay more focused at work (whatever I'm working on)

I should probably make a resolution about finishing old projects before I start new ones, but I can't seem to get very enthusiastic about that. ;)

- Keep my blood sugar under control
- Lose another 50 pounds
- Get myself a Kindle before I lose my mind

Dayam, Steve! That's quite a list. Okay, I know that doesn't count. Just thought I'd try to be accomodating. :)

My main resolution is to remember to back up my hard drive more often.
(I tend to go for small, but achievable goals. Very prosaic.)
