High Resolution

I'm not telling you anything new when I say that making resolutions is easy and keeping them is hard; but sometimes circumstances make resolutions easier. This is unusual, as circumstances are frequently cited as the monkey-wrenchers: my job is really hectic this week, things have been crazy at home this week, I didn't mean to break the pretty lady's neck this week. Circumstances make the little plans of mice and men go awry.

Despite common sense, I've made a resolution this week. I am once again unemployed (go me, it's my birthday!) and for the period of my unemployment I shall do the following: get up at 7:30-ish every morning, shower and dress, do a couple of exercises and then sit at my computer and work on my novel as if that were my 9 to 5 employment. Of course, anyone who understands my work ethic will know that when I have an office job, I spend a large part of it reading, surfing the net and writing on my novel. So if I were to truly recreate an office environment for myself, I'd have to take a break from writing and work on some mind-numbing data entry in the stolen moments between brilliant paragraphs. So if anyone has some data entry they need done, let me know.
