Let's Ring In The New Year

I dislike regretting things, but I have one for 2008: I wish I had fixed more relationships and things.
I ended up mending one broken bridge, but I have yet to see him or talk to him in person since then, so it may not count. I'll wish him a happy birthday on Friday.

This segues well into my New Year's resolutions:

In 2009 I will fix everything; all of my mistakes that began in 2007, they will all be patched over in 2009. I resolve to stop ruining other people's lives and turn my own around. Things are already at a great start. I will not jinx them by mentioning specifics, but I will, hopefully for the last time, make a plea for patience with me.

There are a specific pair of people for whom I have been a colossal thorn. For 2009, I am setting aside my own needs, wants, and aspirations to ensure that these two people will get exactly what they have been waiting for by the end of the year, and maybe more. This has gone on for approximately 1.4 years too long, but I will end it in 2009.

Another person, for whom I have just been a minor nuisance, will get exactly what is owed, and I am NOT referring exclusively to the events of November 2007. This person has been more than a friend, going above and beyond what anyone could ever possibly ask of someone, and all I have to show in grattitude is the most sincere,heartfelt thank-you I have ever offered someone. Words cannot express how much I appreciate having this person in my life in my time of need, and by the end of 2009, I will deliver a proper thanks, one that will express how immensely grateful I am for their presence and support.

I also resolve not to be an idiot. For a while I thought I had that covered, but I wouldn't be resolving not to now if I had.

My last resolution is to finish all of the games that I have bought in the past and have since taken to sitting on my shelf. The Final Fantasies, the Xenosagas, Disgaea 1+2, Magna Carta...all of them. I have no business buying more RPGS before I finish all of the ones I currently own. I might pick up some PS2 memory cards on clearance later in the year to accomodate all of my final saves...I don't take kindly to the idea of deleting the proof of 40+hour investments/timeburning.

Happy New Year!
