The history of this blog and even my life is littered with ideas and projects that I don't follow through on, yet I keep coming up with new ones. This year the big ones have included recording an EP (not one note), reading
Infinite Summer (I lasted less than 50 pages), writing a biography of The Jayhawks (not one word written), blogging about every song by The Jayhawks (I've covered 4 in 2 months), reading the entire works of Charles Dickens (not one word read), and writing about every issue of
Astro City (nope). Still, I don't want to give up on these ideas or at least on the idea of ideas in general. I'd like to follow through on a project or two. I realize I'm setting myself up for failure with all the school work I have in college this semester and the general craziness of life, but here are the blog projects I plan on doing over the next few months...
* A series of posts on the best of the decade in books, music, movies, TV, comics, and whatever else I come up with
* A resumption of writing about The Jayhawks songs
* Reviews of all the new music I've bought this year, in chronological order
It's ambitious, especially for someone with my track record, but I feel like I have to do it. What have I got to lose?
