Happy New Year, Coke Whore!This is my 2008 New Years resolution. Yeah, I know it’s a lil bit late. But better late than never, right? I have spent the last 13 days thinking about this post. I even had most of written. Then after yesterdays brake-up….

Why a resolution?

I need some focus and accountability in my life and writing. Things have been chaotic, to say the least. With all the medical crap, falling in love, moving out, moving in, getting ranked as a blogger, being stalked by a right-wing extremist, having my now blackened heart ripped out. Blah blah blah. I need a plan or at least route directions.

I’ve broken my Resolution in to 5 Categories:
Health and Fitness
Life In General
Blogging and Writing
Working, Money and Bills
Love and Romance


Health and Fitness
1) Get my teeth fixed. Already in the works. Major oral, hehe, surgery scheduled for Thursday morn.
2) Get my UC under control with a Complete Colectomy. (Some time in Feb) Hopefully a J-pouch, for those of you with UC or Chrons. I really don’t feel like pooping in a bag!
3) Get back to my P90X routine (After recovery) I swear this system rocks!
4) Get back to the gym every other day. Not to work out really. More for the eye candy and hot showers….I’m a dirty boy!
5) Cut back on the Marlboro “Reds”. I’m not quiting! Just cutting back. Don’t you even think about commenting about how I should quit.
6) Eat more fish. *Stop laughing Sam*
7) Take longer walks with my dog.
8) Meditate every day. But don’t make it a chore.
9) Get back into Bikram Yoga (Hot Yoga).
10) Use less sugar in my tea and coffee.

Life In General
1) Expand my, non-existent, talents with digital photography and graphic design.
2) Play the man. Not the cards. ;)
3) Spend less time being pissed off by the news…Not very realistic, but I’m gonna try.
4) Smile more! No more scowls. (After the oral, hehe again, surgery)
5) Get back into seeing movies opening night. I used to do this all the time. I would see EVERY movie that came out, the night it came out.
6) Spend less time at Waffle House. Sorry, Shanon and Lori. :(
7) Go back to the old BadEvan style. Combat boots, leather jacket, tattoos, and that stare…
8) Burn my preppy clothes. Try to avoid buying more, dumb ass!
9) Start traveling again. Maybe even move overseas again.
10) Never be afraid or embarrassed of being me! Even if I’m being an ass, awkward, or geeky. I thought that wasn’t an issue for me. But recently I’ve noticed that it can be.

Blogging and Writing
1) Continue visiting my daily list of 650 blogs (I skim for new content. I sometimes use my feed reader for sites with real long post times) Visiting the blogs is better for the bloggers ad revenue.
2) Drop on 300 EnterCard blogs every day. If you haven’t joined EnterCard and you’re a blogger….Well, you’re a douche…
3) Use social bookmarks more. At least 10 submissions/favs to Digg, StumbleUpon, Del.icio.us, Reddit, Blogmarks, Spurl, Blue Dot, Furl, Magnolia, and Sphinn every day.
4) Leave more comments on blogs I come across. Especially if they comment on my blog.
5) Increase my ranks. Get to PR5, Top 100k on Alexa, start using RealRank, higher rank on BestMaleBlogs and QueerListing.
6) Find more GLBT forums and post to them daily.
7) Post here at least 5x a week.
8) Find and implement better monetizing programs.
9) Find away to include the keywords Gay Blog and GLBT in every post. I was gonna use Douche bag but it was taken by CopyRanter.
10) Do a video post at least once a week.

Working, Money and Bills
1) This may sound crazy….Spend more time blogging and surfing. Yeah I realize I spend about 70% of my time this way…Hey, I’m single now and I only need to dedicate 5% to sleep.
2) Get more printing jobs. After I move to my new home in April. Need stickers, banners, posters, fliers, hand-bills, t-shirts, even books printed? Hit me up then. All custom and low rates.
3) Get back into selling my crazy tees and stickers.
4) Start funding and using my stock trading account.
5) Fund my retirement plan.
6) Create a plan to pay off my debt. My debt is at $30k, all medical.
7) Put 10% off all wages and earnings in the “God Hates Me” fund.
8) Go to the river boat once a month. No I’m not kidding!
9) Develop a real business plan for Self Publishing and printing my book, “Man Whore“.
10) Play the lotto more, hehe.

Love and Romance
1) No more blind-dates or friend/family setups. I mean it!
2) No more moving in with “him”.
3) I wont say “I love you” until we’ve been together at least 2 years. I always meant it the few times I’ve said it. But have they?
4) No more dating some one younger. Even though it was just a couple of years..No No NO MORE!
5) No hook-ups or one nighters. Not that I’ve been doing that. Just stating that I wont replace one with many or often.
6) Remember Boys Suck!
7) Remember Boys Lie!
8) Remember There are no real men!
9) Accept that I am bitter and jaded and do not believe in love anymore!
10) Watch more porn!
