I’ve been tracking these since 2003.

My current goals:

• Be part of the kids’ lives (every day that I can)
• Get some puppies
• Read more
• Cook healthy and often
• JLPT 3 (studying for Level 4 first)
• Dance (currently enrolled at AMSD)
• Use the workshop
• Play an instrument
• Restore the Miata / Maintain the Suzuki
• Get back into mathematics
• Find a partner (when at first you don’t succeed, try, try again!)

“Accomplished goals”:

• UW Professional Master’s Program
• FreeBSD/Linux Kernel
• Lap swim twice a week (on my best weeks)
• Fiscal responsibility (not on the street yet)
• Get in shape
• Buy a condo (and then a house)
• Automate routine chores of life (learning to enjoy them instead)
• Fix the MG (donated it instead)
