The Reverend tagged me with this meme. I'm going with listing eight things I'd like to begin in the next six months because currently my life is slow...ie, I'm boring.
1. Promotion - I've been working for one with my company. Though I have a lot more to learn, I think I'm making a mark. I hope so and I would like to finally get that promotion (which leads to others).
2. Move - With promotion comes relocation. No definitive location right now. Have to wait for postings but we're hoping to move somewhere up north.
3. School - I want to finish college. I have so many credits yet no degree. I'm back in a position that I may be able to go back to school. I'm thinking of majoring in English with a concentration in creative writing. Also seriously thinking of photography.
4. A digital SLR - I'm going to get myself a badass one too. Birthday and Christmas are still in the future so a generous gift would be graciously accepted. I'm trying to save up as well; and if all else fails, there's income tax season next year.
5. Publication - I'm wanting to enter some writing contests or seek publication. Perhaps even look into freelance work. I'm told my writing is gooood. I'd like to prove that to myself.
6. Start a novel - No, not the same as above. I write short pieces and lots of poetry. I want to write something bigger.
7. Go on vacation - A real vacation where you go out of town and stay at a hotel or someplace that isn't a family member's address. Do you know that I've only done that once in my life? Once. Five years ago for my daughter's seventh birthday. We went to Disney World. How does one have wanderlust yet never goes anywhere? I have a traveler's spirit but a vagrant's pocketbook.
8. Date - This is the hardest thing out of all this. It means I have to actually feel like something more than a leper. Eh...giving me hives as I think about it.
Ok....For those I have to tag. I'm posting this here and on MySpace and so to include everyone, I pick:
1. Carrie
2. Betts
3. Blazing Jezebel
4. No Milk Please
5. Uncle Tom
6. Beckers
7. Mundane Egg
8. Photogirl
