Words to live by (Unemployed remix)

Every weekday, I will:
  1. Be fully dressed by 10 AM.
  2. Apply for at least 5 jobs, no matter how silly.
  3. Throw myself out of the house for at least an hour.
  4. Speak to at least one person I don't live with.
  5. Get at least 3 things done that aren't on the computer.
  6. Eat at least one proper meal with at least one recognizable fruit or vegetable in it.
  7. Get at least 15 minutes of SOME form of exercise.
  8. Respect a total ban on solitaire between the hours of 9 and 5.
  9. Learn, do, or see at least one new thing.
In other news, I think I'm finally nearly over that stupid cold. I smelled the ocean while I was out on my walk today! That was the first time I'd actually noticed I haven't been smelling anything for a while.

That's a hell of a lot more than I've managed to get done lately. I think I need to come up with a similar list of goals. Thanks for kicking my butt :).

Wow, I was just trying to kick my own butt. I didn't realize I could generate a useful butt-kicking field. (-:

I haven't been getting all this stuff done either, which is why I felt the need to post this. (I'm actually doing pretty well today, though I'm not sure if the underside of the Marina freeway really counts as a new thing to have seen.)

Well, since my days lately have consisted of:
1) drag my butt out of bed before dark (maybe)
2) shower (maybe)
3) drive to work (maybe)
4) read LJ
5) drive home
6) sleep...
I was pretty impressed that you even *made* such an ambitious-looking list. Good luck with it.

Yeah, that sounds like the list that I should have.

That's a laudable list. I found it very difficult to do all that when I was unemployed. Hell, sometimes I find that hard even when I'm employed! ;-)
