august 2016 goals post
It's that time again! A new month, a clean slate. Stretch yourself to add a new goal or two this month if you want, or just double down on some you might have fallen short on last month.
Examples of possible goals can be found here.
Remember to both challenge yourself, and be realistic so that you're not just setting yourself up for failure! And remember, just checking in can net you XP, whether you wind up meeting all your goals or not. ♥

✔ Get sleep schedule back on track for more than a day at a time (in bed between 9 and 10 so I can wake up by 5 or so).
✔ Make more social plans with friends I don't see as often.
✔ Continue job search, because after November, I won't have one (political campaign work: so damn fun, so damn temporary).
✔ Start and/or finish shows I'm still slowly catching up on -- right now that's American Horror Story (no I don't freaking know why I'm watching this, either; tbh I'm judging myself) and I still have to start last season of The Originals. There might be a couple of others in my queue that I've forgotten about, too?
✔ Set aside way more time for reading.
★ I will probably add more shit here as the month goes on.
Online stuff:
✔ Do at least 5 tags a day; clean out the inbox once a week at minimum.
✔ Try to actually canon update Daisy at
★ I will probably add more shit here as the month goes on.
