My 2014 New Years Resolution

Rather than a traditional statement about doing this better or starting this endeavor, I posted this on Facebook on New Years Eve. Kind of a statement rather than a resolution, I thought I'd post it here for posterity's sake.

While I'm ending 2013 broke and with no idea how/where I'll end up, I can't say 2013 hasn't been an important year. I ended an abusive relationship with my former employer, the awful and destructive Coca-Cola company. My main band, Waiting at Sea, has been making great progress. We played our first show, although it was just an open mic. I put out my second solo album on Cities of Agartha Records, Getting Fired, and although I have yet to get any feedback on it, I love it. I also put out three other releases on the label. I recently started a new label that will be putting stuff out very shortly into 2014. I've written quite a bit, and I've finally started real work on my cookbook. I started working at the Klassic Arcade of Gobles, the first job I've had since Wechter that I actually wanted. I love the work and I love what I'm learning. Thank you to those of you that participated in my discussions on here, even when they got crazy and heated. It's fun to debate with you all, I hope none of you take it TOO seriously. Thank you to my new boss for giving me a chance. Thanks and welcome to my life to my new friends on here. Thanks to my wife and kids for sticking by me through this transition, even when food is scarce, bills are behind, and prospects are scary. Thanks to my mom, dad and step-dad for helping us out and putting up with my new direction. Thanks to all my old friends whom I love dearly and miss all the time even though I appear to make no effort to contact you. On the rare occasion we see each other it feels as though only days have passed. Lastly, a big thank you to my friend, songwriting partner, and band mate, I believe in your music as much as I believe in my own. Here's to 2014, whether it brings utopia or apocalypse, it's here and the change is inevitable.
