New Year's Resolutions

First off, I suck. I haven't written at all for a couple of weeks, and for that I apologize. A little. I'm really busy, you know?

I (and naturally, everyone else) are working on a couple of projects that I probably can't talk about at the moment. In defense of that position I should state that at least one of said projects may not be that exciting.

I'm also thrilled to report that the second episode of Damages was way better than the (second season) premiere. 

So I've mentioned this in passing before, but I'm (about to) start going full-steam ahead on doing my own podcast. That's a silly thing to say, who else's podcast would I do?

I heard recently that "a goal without a plan is just a wish", and with that firmly in mind I have a goal to make a plan on how to plan a podcast. I currently have to plan on making that goal however, so I'm stuck in corporate-motivational-seminar-cliche hell.

I really did hear that, at a corporate training thing. Isn't that the best thing you ever heard? I should come up with a few more:

This was me, I ran around the house with a bath towel for a cape. My son has the benefit of having a real cape, hand-sewn by his mother last halloween, so that now his claims that he is Batman are only slightly less believable than if he were wearing a bath towel. I don't remember what hero I was pretending to be, probably (shudder) Superman.

My question is: would anybody listen to me rambling on like this in a podcast? I know my dulcet tones will lull 75% of you into a sleep-like stupor, rendering you unable to operate your iPod and play some real music (or even a real podcast), but what about the rest of you?

I thought the first episode would focus on my recent realization that I'm an atheist. Thanks for the book, honey!

So I don't do New Year's Resolutions. This year I'm doing monthly resolutions, and January's are to stop biting my nails and to stop not planning a podcast. I'll let you know when the more interesting of the two happens.

So any thoughts? Anything anybody wants me to talk about in particular, besides my own half-baked ridiculous opinions on things?

And don't forget: Friday night, Sci-Fi, Battlestar: Galactica.
