Day 2: Electric Boogaloo

So its Day 2, I haven't read, I've smoked 2 cigarettes and didn't go to work. Yes I am still sick but I could have sucked it up and gone but nooooooo bed looked so much better to me at the time.

So I've rationalized that to myself by cleaning my Apartment and job searching (I hate my job FYI). I need something that challenges me mentally at least a little bit, right now I can do my entire job running on 2% brain power.

I think I have to break up with my girlfriend, not for anything in particular but just that I can't see myself with her long term. I do really care about her and she is a great person but she doesn't operate on the same level as I do. The only thing we talk about is how her day was anddddddddd that's it, she doesn't keep up with anything that's going on in the world and has no interest in learning about it. And unfortunately I have been finding myself looking at a certain type of girl more which means my tastes may changed or just that I don't find her attractive anymore...... I'm not sure why but I think I need to be more selfish this year until I'm happy.

   So here I am on the first of January doing what many others around the world must be doing: Beginning a Journal or Blog. I have heard a lot recently that writing a journal helps people organize their thoughts and become more successful and happy people. So I said why not I wants (and need) more of those things in my life so I'll try everything I can to help, but the reason why I chose a blog is because I am inherently narcissistic  and the fact people may read my thoughts has me very stirred up....in my loins.
    In the last few years I have existed as, how I've come to learn oddly. much as everyone else my age does. I was an overachiever in throughout middle school and High school and took college with the same Laizie Faire approach. But since then I have been surprising under achieving and simply content with that fact. I'm not sure where this comes from but I know more then a few people who have a 4 year degree like myself and are seemingly content with their lower than usual station in life because of the reasoning "You're lucky just to have a job".
     So I have decided to make 2013 the year where I get back in the game.  So this journal will be a combination of: a tracker of my success in my attempts and a source of my random thoughts and ramblings on whatever is bothering me that day.

     Here are a list of what I am attempting to accomplish by the end of the year. You will see some as cliche and some are a little more out of the box.

•           Drop my BMI under 10% --- To give you an Idea of the size of that task know that I am about 25 pounds over weight and have almost no athletic ability (I will post the first set of pics at 30 Days in)
•           Eat Better in General-- My consistent diet of bagels, pasta, burgers and unending beer has not been doing me to well as of late
•           Drink Less but have more fun-- All readers will soon learn that one of my biggest problems seems to be my drinking, not because I get DUIs, fights or hurt myself. But because I tend to my a ginormous ass out of myself. My drinking leads me to sleeping with ugly women, stupid arguments over nothing and generally not caring about when I need to wake up in the morning.
•           Stop Smoking Cigarettes, Smoke Weed more Medicinally less Recreational--- Smoking Cigarettes is a no brainer I can rarely run up a set of stairs or have a decent sex session with out feeling like there's a volcanic sacrifice in my lungs. And the issue of Marijuana... I do some of my best creative writing and problem solving when I'm high AND it helps me sleep. Now marijuana does these things when I am only slightly high just enough to turn my brain up to eleven, This doesn't happen when I get drooling at the High Def Documentary on the creation of Nebula shoving Oreos in my mouth High, the later of the options can't happen any more
• (This next one is going to sound awful but) I want to be famous, at least in the mid sized city I live in-- This one is truly the most selfish on the list, and is all about my ego.  At least I'm honest everyone who writes one of these blogs has a hope in the back of their mind that it will be a huge sensation, they hide it, and I would never hide something from you Journal/ Lone reader
• By the end of the Year drive a car nicer than my Parents-- Simple straight forward, I'm thinking Audi S5 .... suck it Dad
• Join some sort of sports league-- My city during the spring and summer has extensive league for everything from softball to ultimate Frisbee time to take out some of these competitive spirit out on something more that Noobs on COD
• Read More-- I feel like I am behind the ball on whats considered required reading for life that ends now.
• Heres another selfish one, Sleep with and Date Better women--- Maybe due to my general level of inebriation or my lack of caring in general the caliber of women in my life isn't exactly stellar. Yes looks are a part of in but they need to have a brain too, I'm sick of sitting across the table or bar with a girl and having nothing to talk about because I've already made them loos stupid by mentioning something so academic as Politics,  Science or anything but celebrities and what happened with their days.
• At least attempt to open my own business doing something I would love to do the rest of my Life.

I know this is an exhaustive list and I promise all my posts wont be this serious and straight forward. My irreverence will very quickly shine through and I will always be up for advice from my readers (hahaha like I had any)
