Spend less money on pedals impulsively (still have a few cool things I plan on buying, just want to stop doing the old "hey I have a bit of money and that thing in B/S/T looks fun" quite as much).

Work harder to avoid failing everything.

Well....

While I haven't really made many lasting friends I think I've been way better at meeting people and I went on a 6 week holiday in foreign countries and enjoyed meeting people all the time.

I did buy a lot of pedals in 2011, but they're all awesome and I thought about them all at least a bit so I'm counting that as acheived.

I didn't fail anything so I guess I'm 3 for 3, sort of?

I don't want buy or sell any gear in 2012. I'll make an exception for a Randy's Revenge, and for the below thingy.

Start making my own pedals. Start using my own pedals. Start selling my own pedals.

Nope.

Nope.

Nope.

I did buy a Randy's Revenge though. Also I lost over 20 pounds which is pretty cool.

I have a short resolution. My girlfriend is away for two weeks starting a few days ago, so for the duration that she's gone I'm not drinking at all and working out like crazy. It won't make a big change in such a short time, but it's enough that it might be slightly noticeable.

...it didn't work too well last yearn for force majeure personal disasters. Which I'm not even listing here since everybody who would give a fuck anyway probably already knows a deal of my 2012 mishaps. Anyway.

Hope next year fixes at least the delayd Fuzzifer release and something, if personal scale micro-disasters don't come effecting my health, family life, and band activities. :grumpy: :facepalm: :whateva:

But fuck all that. Can't afford reveling in the past and turning more morbid than I am already. :excellent:

Find new girlfriend.

Hey damn, got everything done and lost it a few times during the year. As of right now the only one I check off is in shape. Mom's cooking during the holidays is far to awesome.
awesome signature with witty quotes from all you fuckers :)

I'm hoping to own a 400+ (or an SVT but would honestly rather have the Mesa over the Ampeg) before the year is out,...hence the "start a for real savings".


Holy fuck I did it.
