Since I'm working on my list of goals for the next while, I'm stealing a meme from theferret. Like him, I don't promise to try to do everything suggested, but I'm curious as to whether or not anybody has suggestions.

Please comment with something you think I should do or try to do in 2008. Big or small, silly or earth-changing.

I'll eventually be posting my list of goals, once I have it. That will be more for my record keeping purposes than for anything else. I'm not sure anybody else would be interested. Right now, I'm trying to figure out how to break down the big, unitary goals into small steps that are more likely to be done (and more likely to be picked up again if I lapse for a while). Then again, maybe I'll post the big goals and ask you guys for advice on how to break them apart-- Finishing two afghans, for example, is an intimidating goal, one that's hard to break down.

Well...maybe begin working on the outline of the next chapter of Rheotaxis?

I have almost a thousand words of the chapter written. I simply need to find time and mental space to write the rest of it.

"Finish 'Rheotaxis'" is one of the big goals that I need to subdivide somehow.

I even know the first couple of sentences of the chapter after the next one.

Try one book that you never thought you would read (which one is up to you.)

Alternatively, try a book that you didn't like a while ago and see if you like it more now.

Interesting idea. I've added it to my list.

write a children’s book.

you have plenty on your f-list that know how to write/draw to help you with illustrations and editing.

No promises on this one. I'll think about it, but I won't promise.

I've been sleeping all day and night for the last 2 days -- and I expect at least one more day of it.

Our various symptoms and syndromes are so similar that what occurred to me to suggest to you, I want to do also.

That is: look at the sky every day.

I haven't seen the sky in at least 2 days. I'm going to go look out the window now...
