Hello Janus
Three days into 2005, and I'm finally getting to my "Hello new year" post. <sarcasm>I'm sure you were all waiting with baited breath.</sarcasm>
2004 was a year of intense frustration and confusion for me. The frustration was due to {This section removed by US Department of Homeland Security and secret Microsoft filter on all blog postings}, while the confusion was fed partly by the frustration's cause, and partly by family & friends' desires. I hope that 2005 will improve on all these cases (but I'm not holding my breath).
As it is a new year, resolutions are in fact in order. As one of you may recall, I blew my resolutions of 2004 in about 6 weeks. As such, I've decided to create better resolutions this year. Ones that I feel I can complete. So, in the interests of "corporate transparency" and the Nth rule of magic ("Once written, so shall it be") here are my "no-fail" resolutions for 2005 (three because that's the 3rd rule of magic ("Thrice stated, once true"):
- I resolve that in 2005 I will not knowingly eat, drink or otherwise consume any banana slugs.
- I resolve that in 2005 I will strive to write more code (and text) than in 2004. I hope to someday recover the organ that was occupying my head before I got hired by the company that first drove me insane: {Name of company withheld at request of CEO}
- I resolve that in 2005 I will continue to play World of Warcrack as only a true addict can. But not at work, because that would be wrong. Honest.
Best wishes to all, I hope that 2005 brings you all the joy of 2004, and none of the grief. We now return you to the regular, boring blog.
