Unwise Purchases

Published 5 April 2007

Hi! You've stumbled upon a blog post by a guy named Ryan. I'm not that guy anymore, but I've left his posts around because cool URIs don't change and to remind me how much I've learned and grown over time.

Ryan was a well-meaning but naïve and priviledged person. His views don't necessarily represent the views of anyone.

I listen the Writer’s Almanac every day, and occasionally one strikes me. Yesterday's episode, Unwise Purchases by George Bilgere, seemed especially relevant.

I'm finishing my master's program in a month. In light of this celebration of secret snobberies, I thought I'd publish my goals to feel up the free time I'll have once finished (and will probably never complete).

  • Blog once a week
  • Run, work out, or do yoga every day
  • Finish my Tau army
  • Buy a Wii and play Zelda until I cannot any more
  • Drink 64oz. of water each day.
  • Write BibDesk export templates for hCite in MLA, APA and Chicago Styles
  • Write at least an hour a day
  • Fence

But at least I'll try.
