Still in progress?

It is possible that sometimes I do stray from the original intentions of this blog. Blogging about aliens and knife-wielding grandmothers is amusing, though. At least to me it is. And it's all about me, as you know. And so, as a half-assed attempt at getting back on track... I'd like to offer a few ideas for those of you who are interested in progress, as I am.

Progress is:

• using your stupid ex-girlfriend's toothbrush to clean your bathroom before your awesome new girlfriend comes over for the evening
• finding a reason to continue living without regular doses of cable TV and video games (nervous twitches may develop as a result, but can be controlled with practice)
  
• making the time to take classes to learn new things
• eating more broccoli, because you're not 12 anymore
  
• traveling more, even if (especially if) you're not sure if you can afford it
  
• telling others to wait, while you take time to simply... breathe
• admitting to yourself that you matter

This is a short list, just to get you started. Care to add anything?
