In reflection of the year
2000, I've learned an enormous amount about what I want my future to look like. I've
exorcised the marketing demon, and am clear now that I was born with an engineer's outlook, not a salesperson's
shiny smile. I've notched up another good year with my
lover. I've quite often noticed my breathing. I went to
Japan for a solid vacation. I didn't do drugs, 'cept for
alcohol. I found E2, I cooked a few good meals, I loved and was loved in return.
Tonight I'm thankful for my life. Gemma and I plan to ride our bicycles down to the lake and drink some very nice sauvignon blanc and enjoy each other's company, under the fireworks. Tomorrow is a new year.
My new year's resolution is to procrastinate less around personal matters -- to treat my own needs with as much attention and diligence as I do my work. Yeah, I'm happy with that.
