Keepin’ it real, yo. So real, I’m even a week behind writing these.
1. I will write more. It keeps my brain healthy, and frankly, gives me something to do between that time when I get home and collapse onto the couch, and when I start to think about feeding myself. The cat may get slightly less attention as a result of this one. Collateral damage, as far as I’m concerned.
2. I will READ MORE! My brand new copy of Sebastian Junger’s ‘WAR’ has been cohabitating on my nightstand with discarded earrings and half-drunk glasses of water. It’s not a fancy coaster!! There are so many more books to read in this house, now (one of the large LARGE perks of moving in with someone, besides the regular, uninhibited sex life) No excuses.
3. I will use, and become good at one damned instrument, instead of being sadly mediocre at a dozen or so. You’d think a pack of highly skilled musicians lived in this house, instead of two career ‘noodlers’. To date, our inventory includes: 5 guitars (three electric, two acoustic), 2 ukuleles, two harmonicas, and one flute. The newest addition to the family is my gorgeous new mango wood ukulele. I will spend more time with this.
4. Use my crockpot.
That is all.
