2. Try to understand that the old white men in Congress who are Republicans are indeed human. After all, you are an old white man yourself. But it's so hard...
3. You should try to read more fantasy, mysteries, science fiction and thrillers. Because, you know, you didn't this year.
4. Scale back the level of your horticultural ambitions to goals that are sustainable and achievable. (You knew that mango plantation under glass was not going to fly, didn't you?) Mebbe a coupla tomato plants.
5. Read more political blogs so that you can develop the cunning of Karl Rove but remain within the realm of fact and reason. On second thought, this may be like squaring the circle or untying the Gordian knot. Mebbe next incarnation.
6. Understand that many do not realize that Austin is the Center of the Significant Cosmos & that the idea of bat-watching is lost to their appreciation, let alone the actuality.
7. Work on your novel in the most desultory and lackadaisical fashion possible. Maybe even try a little procrastination. (I don't believe in putting pressure on myself).
8. Go the YMCA gym at least three times a week. That way you wil be ideally positioned to do exercise if you should feel like it. (No pressure, see?)
9. There may be a Notes to myself for the fortcoming year II--but, hey, no pressure.
