The Traditional First Post of the Year
In the first post of the year, it is customary to:
1. Wish everyone a happy new year and express thanks for the readership and support.
I’ve really enjoyed having this blog for the last nine months. I’ve seen my stats grow so I know there are people out there. Thanks so much for stopping by! I would probably still write even if no one was reading, but it is so much more fun to think that someone else actually sees this stuff.
I hope we all have a joyful, prosperous, adventurous, and rewarding 2009.
2. Put forth some resolutions, vow some actions, and set some goals.
Resolutions: Be more optimistic. Be less lazy. Look at the planner every day. Write everything down in the planner.
Actions: Downgrade cable after the end of Battlestar Galactica. Redo the business website. Cut more expenses.
Goals: Refocus the business. Get moving on the financial front.
3. Make some predictions.
If they get Illinois Rod Blagojevich for something, they’ll have to do it with something else besides the vacant Obama Senate seat.
President Obama is going to be very frustrated in his first year in office. Congress is not going to cooperate as much as he is expecting them to. After he adjusts, the following years of his Presidency will be better.
The credit crunch is not going to get better next year. The credit card industry is going to hit the news.
Laura Roslin is going to die on Battlestar, and I am going to be a sobbing mess. (not a spoiler)
The Apple backlash/disenchantment is going to get louder.
Have a good one, folks! Let’s go get ‘em!
