On January 1st I posted my New Year's Resolutions. Let's see how well I did.
Throw out my Miramax DVD's.
They're gone. Sorry Harvey.
Finally watch THIS IS US.
Next year for sure.
Get ALMOST PERFECT on Netflix or Hulu.
It's on Netflix in Europe I'm told. So that's something.
Go to the gym at least twice a week. (My gym is usually packed in January and by March it’s me and two other guys.)
I meant to say "twice a month." And then yes, I crushed this one.
Stay off the 405 freeway when it’s crowded (so only take it between 2-4 AM).
That's an impossible resolution.
Get more productions of my plays.
I had a very successful year. 37 productions and 10 readings. And some exciting things on tap already for the new year.
Meet Claire Danes. (I resolve this every year)
One of these years for sure.
Learn to do an accent in my improv class.
Does "Valley Girl" count?
See a Broadway show I wish I had written.
DEAR EVAN HANSEN
Go somewhere in the world I've never been.
Rome. And Valley Vista. Check.
Recover from the jet lag.
Zzzzzzz.
Impeach the president.
No, but we're sure getting closer.
Finish writing my new play (almost done with the second draft).
Done and the first reading is in two weeks.
Learn what half the features on my car are.
I figured out the seat warmer so I got the important one.
Finish watching THE DEUCE. It's been on DVR for months.
I did. And even watched the first episode and a half of season two.
Champion strict gun control.
Check.
Get a humor piece in the NEW YORKER.
No, unless I can get you to believe I used the pseudonym "Paul Rudnick."
Get a cartoon in the NEW YORKER.
I suppose I'd have to enter one to make that happen.
Avoid the incredibly tasty fried chicken wings at the Hamburger Hamlet.
Proudly, yes, I succeeded! But only because the Hamlet closed.
Keep Tetris playing down to three hours a day.
I failed miserably.
Answer more Friday Questions (which I'll be able to do if I keep the previous resolution).
I did add a few bonus question days so I'm going to say check.
Clean my desk (a perennial resolution but this year for sure!)
Or next year for absolute certain.
And finally, solve the Natalie Wood case.
No, but will watch the new HBO special.
WOW! I DID WAY BETTER THIS YEAR.
