Welcome back...
Goddamn. I got real behind on entries didn't I? No updates, no end of the year wrap-up, no "New Year new me" bullshit. Just a whole lot of nothing. For those who wanted that, I'm sorry to disappoint you. For those thankful for silence, I'm even more pleased to disappoint you. You hear that void? You hear that clouds? Figments of my imagination I hope you're listening. Fuck all of you, I'm back.
Well that felt good. Pointless though it was, I enjoyed it.
Anywho...
In the spirit of accountability, I've decided to go ahead and post my goal list for the year. Last year I took a break from goals and, while needed to get myself re-centered, it's time to get back up on my bullshit. That said here are, in no particular order, my goals for 2025:

I recognize the ridiculousness of this list. I recognize how impossible it very well may be. Here's the thing, I turn 40 this year. I have decades of "wasted" time behind me and I'm only getting closer to the fated finish line. At this point, I have no reason not to pursue this sort of nonsense. I spent how long trying to make money with shit that didn't really matter to me? How long was I motivated by "showing" old bosses and exes? I really ought to stop doing that and pursue the shit that matters to me. Regret is already setting in for me and I'd rather not add to it.
Dicks for listening!
