 I posted these on Tumblr a few days ago but here they are now, and also I'm going to elaborate on them a little bit for long-form blogging.

personal
  • dye my hair black (because hopefully that will help me stop being weird about my blonde hair not being as blonde as it used to be and I can stop being self-conscious whenever my grandmother mentions it)
  • go through my entire wardrobe and keep only that which is tailored to (ha!) my current situation
  • do more hobbies and less social media
get it together
  • find a dentist
  • join a credit union
  • find a therapist
  • plan meals in advance 
  • figure out what the Next Step is (because my job is making me miserable and I know part of that is because I have been off meds for over a month now but also my job just generally is so exhausting and it's not what I want to do long-term)
creative 
  • finish a long-term WIP
  • make visual art for myself and don’t worry about it being good (I wrote today in my sketchbook: "I am going to draw badly and be okay with it! I am going to paint some real garbage and love it! And maybe I will make stuff I like, too!")
  • take an art class with my mom
  • finish a sketchbook

that's uh. that's the list. I also want to keep reading (I read 18 books in 2018 compared to the 4 books I read in 2017, so I want to keep that momentum going) and utilizing the library. I want to keep going outside even though I'm not in the PNW anymore. I was really impressed by how concrete Galvin's resolutions were and I think that I try breaking things down into quantifiable resolutions at some point this month, but for now... these are good.

damn

it's been way harder to stay off tumblr today than I thought it would be. mainly it's because the app on my phone is in my "top used" or whatever section and that's how i usually access it (because i tried months ago to make it harder to get to it and removed it from my my....... home screen? is that what it's called on a phone? the phone version of a desktop.) and I can't delete it from there apparently. so uh. oops? it's just my natural pattern of moving my fingers around on the screen to go to the app screen and then click in the top left corner and bam, tumblr!

fuck tumblr y'all

my job has been really exhausting lately and. y'all i dunno.

anyway i got to see rebecca the other day (which was really nice) and I told her to make a dreamwidth account so that's fun. maybe i'll just word of mouth my way into forcing all of my friends over here?
