If I were to create a list of “goals” of the year 2010, they would be this…
1.) Try to complete a book a week (or every two weeks) in relation to theater / improv / whatever. This goal shouldn’t be too hard, but it’s already proved to be more difficult then I hoped. It took me from the 18th of Jan. to yesterday, the 3rd of Feb. to finish a rather short book (truth be told, I did go back and take notes…). I’m hoping to get through at least eight or nine books by May (complete with detailed notes).
2.) I’d like to go the the gym more often. It’s strange, when I don’t go I feel like I’m missing something in my life. I hope the the sleep study I have (coming up on the 11th) with yield positive results and I can end up sleeping better. that would be nice. That might also inspire me to get up earlier and go to the gym. these two things would be awesome.
3.) I really would like to write more. I have all these budding ideas that need outlets. I have “The Clink”, which is fine, and I have this new project in the works too… but I would really like to branch out even further. write out a few of the plays i’ve been kicking around. If 2010 yielded so results in that department, i’ve be very happy.
4.) Performer more (potentially). Be it a musical, Improv, film, whatever. The more, the better. I know I have a few things that are set to happen (like “Rocky” in the fall) but, I want to work on adding a few more things in the mix. Time will tell.
5.) Spend more time with Suzanne and the Cats. This goal might seem either obvious or hard to fit in compared to everything else I mentioned, but it’s still very, very important. Life isn’t worth living without company, and the company I keep is the very best company of all. Suzanne has been a very positive and caring force in my life, and I plan on showing her every day that I appreciate her.
6.) Try to also spend time with my friends. I’m really happy to have this project i’m working on with my friend Tom, were seeing as many different productions of “Rocky” as we can, and adding critique to the performances. Also, I have “The Basement”, “The Clink” and you name it with my Wilmington Improv friends. Plus Wrestling time with Gordon and other fun things, like Passover and “You’ve Got Geek on You” movies! 2010 could be a very good year to spend with other.
7.) I’d like to create another “The Andrew Mitchell Project” album in 2010… It could be time for another.
Well, that should be my year in a nutshell, more or less might happen, but if everything I mentioned occurs, things will be looking pretty good.
