#29 – Organize'd!

It’s finally done!

I finished!

That’s right, all my media (PS2 games, CDs, and DVDs) are completely organized! Now, just need to keep adding things as I find them, and remembering to scan them into my organizer program. Oh, that reminds me: I need a GOOD organizer program. Y’know, something where I can just scan in the barcode on the item, and it fills in everything else for me (unless it’s something REALLY obscure, in which case I’ll still have to do some data entry…. grrrr…..). And oh yeah, it’s gotta be free. When I finally get that, I’ll mark the task as completed on the list.

If all goes as planned, that’ll be done tonight.

#48, The Relapse

Well here it is, not even 24 hours after my last post about the Chipotle goal, and I’ve relapsed.

I didn’t even think about it when I went to Chipotle during my lunch break. The only thing I was thinking about was how hot it was, and how screwed up things were at work. I didn’t think about it until I was about halfway through the burrito.

Oh well. That will just serve to heighten my determination, and something. Now the clock starts over, and I again strive for 30 days.

#48 – No Chiplotage for you!

I think I’m crazy.

I’ve been Chipotle-free since Wednesday (the 24th), and I know I’m a little more addicted than I thought I was because it’s getting hard to bear living without having a burrito. How sad is that? I’m that dependant on a burrito from a certain establishment. Anyway, I’ve modified the goal slightly. Two weeks just is too short a time. Instead, I’m going for an entire month. That’s right, I’m not going to have a burrito until at least June 24th.

Let’s see how long I make it.

#67 – Create an online journal devoted to these 101 things

This one is kinda obvious.

This is the journal referred to in #67, so you can see I have set it up. It will probably go through some minor (major) tweaks (code rewrites) at some point; however, for now, it’s gonna look like the main blog. You might notice some rather sweeping changes at some point that are rather unexpectant, since my website automatically updates both the wordpress software and the k2 theme from subversion repositories at 2am (PST) every morning, in whatever state they’re in. This means they could be broken beyond belief. If that happens, I’m probably already working on getting less screwy code installed from the repository.

#36 – Publish this list on the Internet

The first goal on this list was accomplished yesterday, when I finally published my list to a web site.

My current list will always be available at this location, and when I have more than one list, I will probably make subpages from there so everyone can see my progress over the years, as well as what items made the cut after the list was done.

Welcome.

Welcome to my 101 things in 1001 days blog. This blog will help to track my progress through my 101 tasks through February 11, 2009. However, it will grow to be much more; I will eventually turn this into a large, popular resource for all information on this project, including ideas, starting points, sample lists, and more. Stay tuned, as I use this to fulfill several items on my list.

I may be adding more help at some point in the future; all help and new lists will be marked.

101 in 1001

I have found my inspiration to turn my life around. I am going to do what so many people have already started: I have made a list of 101 goals for the next 1001 days, and as I cross them off I\’ll give you reports of what I\’m doing.

I thought today might be a good time to start – after all, on this day (Wednesday, May 17, 2006), I am exactly 1001 weeks old. So, the list starts now. It will be posted around here later today though, since it is currently 2:21am and I have to work at 10. Look for the list sometime around 11pm Mountain Time. Barring any currently unforeseen circumstances, I should have the list up and posted then.

(This list was inspired by Triplux, which seems to be the one who thought this up – genius idea!)

A wireless headset has many advantages over a wired one. One of which is the ability to hit the head late at night with other people in the house trying to sleep, but still rock out.
