I now play badminton every week with my girlfriend, and when I get a new iPod, I’ll be doing more walking instead of driving.

and happy I am

I have too many TODO lists. At least none of them have stuff like “drink less coffee”, cos that’s just a silly idea.

I reckon that by the summer, I’ll be 1/4 to the way of achieving this as long as I don’t make any more unnecessary purchases.

Unfortunately, I now wake up before the alarm clock goes off. Practice makes perfect, but now I lie in bed awake, in anticipation of the dreaded alarm going off in the morning. I suspect that might be due to stress or something similar. Probably related to some of the things near the top of my list here.

This is a great service. Now the three computers I mainly use have my del.icio.us RSS feed as a bookmark folder, and I can get rid of all my other bookmarks. The best way to keep it all synchronised I’ve seen. I’ve not got Safari using the feed yet, but heard that it can be done.

I’ve started going out for a walk around the city and back to my flat whenever I’ve got time. It usually takes a few hours.

Looks like the Mac Mini can do everything I’ve previously needed to do on a computer, and has some nice apps like Safari, iTunes, GarageBand and there’s a whole load of high quality free software available. All for the same price as a cheap PC.

My Mac Mini finally arrived and I’m now using it as my primary desktop system.

Guitar or keyboard… I’ve done a bit of both in the past. Had more success with keyboard. I’d now like to try both again I think. Think I’ll buy a MIDI keyboard to plug into the computer. That’ll be waiting a month or two to avoid getting into debt then.

I’ve ordered one, and now waiting. Hopefully it’ll arrive within a couple of weeks. Unfortunately, this isn’t helping with one of the points further down my list about clearing debt. Just couldn’t resist it though.
