Ooops, I keep forgetting I have a blog

My friend, Frankie, just reminded me that I have a blog, so I guess I should post here every once in a while. At the new year, I posted some goals for 2008, so as the year is half over, let's see how I've done (completed goals are bolded):

2008 Goals:

1. Academic
A. Finish draft of dissertation by March 5
B. Successfully defend dissertation in April
C. Draft Ch. 6 into an article by August
D. Draft Ch. 5 into article by November

2. Personal
A. Actively pursue dating
B. Keep in touch with current friends
C. Make at least one new friend
D. Finish one cross-stitch picture

3. Health and Fitness
A. Make better food choices
B. Exercise more frequently
C. Run a 10k
D. Run a half marathon

Currently, I'm procrastinating on 1C; 3A is a constant struggle; I'm in training for 3D; and it's too early to judge all of #2 (though I was making really good progress on a x-stitch picture).

There's still a lot to be done in 2008. Here I come!
