Patience

well, you all look like complete idiots. "kim, way to finish those goals..." (insert sarcasm), "kim, quitters never win and winners never quit." (insert smugness) "kim, why did you stop blogging?" (insert normal voice of a curious kind person) HA.

in all seriousness, sorry followers. you can't fight the forces of a writers' strike.

does a tree that falls in the forest when no one is around still make a sound? related, does a blogger without a blog still accomplish goals when she is not writing about them? i have seven books with worn spines and soy sauce-stained pages that say "yes, she does".

goal number 5: read the harry potter series

for funsies, you can read this post with a british accent. trick question- there is nothing fun nor funny about harry potter. it's about a skinny orphan boy who faces two huge obstacles: 1) being a constant third wheel and 2) always worrying that his owl is mad at him. jk. (get it? jk rowling...) anywho, it's actually a brilliant tale of a young wizard's experiences with friendships, good and evil forces, love, death and most importantly, "snogging".

while our minds are already across the pond, how 'bout that royal wedding?

also, **spoiler alert**, osama bin laden was captured, killed, and buried at sea. with that evil gone from the world, nbc's today show decided to promote ann curry to replace meredity vieira as matt lauer's co-host.
