Postcards From My Life

Dear Reader,

Ok, that last post was as close as I’m gonna get to a “year in review” post. I just don’t like looking backwards that much. So let’s take a moment to look forward and set some goals.

• Lose 30 lbs.
  Yeah, I know it’s a cliche but I really want to drop 30 this year. These guys just opened up down the street, I think I’ll give them a try. Aside form the fact that they use ColdFusion for their website, they seem to be pretty cool.
• One blog post per week in 2008.
  Guess what, I’ve got the first week covered. Seriously, I’ve been real lax in posting here for the past year, mainly because most of my writing efforts go to DevZone. However, I do have several ideas that I want to discuss here that revolve around technology but are not necessarily related to PHP.
• Write One new article per month.
  With all the opportiunities I have to write, you would think this is a no brainer but like everything else, I get sidetracked on other projects. So I hope to post or have printed, one new article per month.
• Another Book in 2008.
  Ok, so my first book isn’t officially released yet but even so, it was all written in 2007. I’d like to come up with another idea and sell it to a publisher. I’m guessing my ability to do so is greatly dependent on the sales of my first book. So do me a favor…go order a copy.
• A picture a day in 2008.
  Inspired by people like Chris Wage, Andrei Zmievski, Sebastian Bergmann and Terry Chay, I really want to post one new picture per day in 2008…I’m already behind, this being Janyary 2nd and I’ve yet to post a picture. As soon as I finish this post, I’ll start figuring out what and where to shoot. Note: my goal is not to be as good as any of those four, just to post a new picture every day. I’m shooting for goals I can actually hit.
• Learn a new language
  The Lovely an Talented Kathy and I will be learning French this year.

So those are my goals for the year, only time will tell whether I can hit them. Hey, have you posted your goals for the year? let me know, I’ll link to them.

Until next time,

Dear Reader,

Ok, I’ve uploaded some new pictures to my flicker account. Some of them are cool, some of them are lame, all most all of them are taken by me. Looking back at the pictures I’ve taken, I think I’ve gone from really bad to almost bearable. One of my goals in the next year is to improve my eye for composition. Anyhow, I looked over by flicker account and picked out a few of my favorites. Some of these are ones I consider good and some are just good memories.

Enjoy (or ridicule, either is fine with me, I didn’t take them for you anyhow) and happy new year to you and yours.

Until next time,
