At this time of year, when I start to remember that it will soon be over, and I'll shortly be turning a whole year older, I like to look back at what I've not done, and really REALLY drive home the fact that I'm a lazy bastard. So, let's take a look at my Resolutions, as published on this blog, to see if I'm even close to achieving them.
"Resolution 1) Be more positive, and nicer to people. This one relates to not trying to run people over on pedestrian crossings, and not dreaming up ways to destroy Amnesty International and their infernal attempts at increasing the world's population."
Unfortunately, I have not achieved this one - yet. I've actually had more 'accidents' with pedestrian crossings this year, than any year before. As to the Amnesty International hatred, well that's still firmly entrenched I'm afraid. I don't think that's ever going to go away, and why should it? Damn them and their constant attempts to save the human race...
"Resolution 2) Go to the gym. This one WILL work - my personal trainer says so, and I'm paying her to say that so if she's wrong, I'll be sueing her tight little arse."
Well, she wasn't wrong - she was right. So does that mean that technically SHE achieved my resolution? Or was it me? Either way, I can give this one a big fat tick.
"Resolution 3) Stop talking about being a writer, and get on with actually doing it. Ooooh I'm achieving this one already! But no - I will be attempting to sign up on a course. At some kind of evening class institution - very unlike me, but that's the point."
Ummm - no. The most I've done is write my blog. My lord I was an optimistic fool in January. Sign up to an evening class - pah! What a crock of shit.
So, one out of three is ... quite bad. But I don't care. I jumped out of a plane for christ's sake. And oooh! I can use that as an excuse for almost anything! Bazza - have you written that presentation yet? No - I jumped out of a plane. Bazza - are you still in some dodgy Media Sales job? Yes - but I jumped out of a plane.
Brilliant.

Can you tell your readers how many of the books you have read that were mentioned as one of your first entries?
Actually, it wasn't one of my first entries. But yes, I will re-visit the reading list, if you like. Smart Arse.
