2012 Resolutions
I really only have two resolutions this year. Hopefully I get to them. I also have some tasks to get done as well.
1. Read the bible
I’ve started Genesis. I really want to create a bible RPG game, and I have to read through the bible first.
2. Experiment with Polyphasic Sleep
I think two or three naps per day is good. Not the uberman.

New Years 2011 Resolution Revisited
Every year, I share my resolutions in order to help me keep myself on track. Sometimes, goals just aren’t refined enough to do, and sometimes goals are just too hard to do. Here they are, and let’s see which ones I’ve failed.
[Success] Spend at least one month using no credit cards or debit cards to pay for purchases, excluding online purchases. ATM withdrawals are fine.
Thanks...
