Things I want in 2008

January is the time to plan your entire year...or so you think.

Nonetheless, the eternal optimist is going to try again.

I want to:

• Get settled here with the permit, the phd and everything.

• Look good or get comatose (either ways) on the beaches of Corsica by June/July (found new swimsuit, half the work done!)

• Bring my mom and Nixon for a nice trip in Rome, Italy in the summer when they come.

• Make a craft room for myself out of that dingy study we have. (inspiration from My Aim is True)

Finally, a break with GJ just the two of us, in Limburg, Ardenne and Luxembourg.

September 2007

Conference in Glasgow.
