A letter from February 4th, 2021

Dear FutureMe, I need to stop the madness of writing about the same things over and over. Why on earth do I want to try and accomplish something that I only talk about but never do? It doesn’t make any sense. I either need to do it or give it up. But here is the thing. I can do this. But when I’m around my hot hun all I want to do is be around him and not do much else. Working on my goals means I am not spending time with him so I think that’s why I don’t do it. When I am at home alone. I get a ton of shit done! Ah but that’s all excuses. Because one, I don’t have to do everything with him and two, he is not home all the time and three, we share some similar goals that we could work on together. So, get your shit in gear and do this man! (Not like do him do him but you/we/us do this) You made this year the year of you. You said that you were going to work on everything that you wanted to work on to make you a better person. Wait, I’m talking to past me. I’m supposed to be writing to future me. FM this is up to you. You have to bring it home for PU and PM (past us and present me). Or should it be PW, present we. Now that we are all three twisted up with our heads spinning lets get this plan going. PW already made a plan and PM is listing it out here for reference. FM (that’s you reading this) is the one that has to do all the work. But, forget it. If I use anymore past, present or future references I’m going to lose my mind. So what are we three (really 2 because the past is the past and only counts for reference and learning - she’s not doing anymore work here!). So what the two of us (mostly just present me, future me gets the consequences of what present and past has done) going to do this year. Hell, let’s go for the gusto: - Lose 53 pounds - Learn more Spanish - actually have conversations - Learn the drums - Get the rest of the clutter out of the house - Create the best ticket reconciliation process in the entire NBA (really I won’t know if it is the best because I don’t have any other team accountant friends) Ok, now that I am thoroughly excited about the future and confused about how I am I’m going to end this letter. Question? Did the bullet points above get accomplished? Did we do more than what is listed? What’s going on these days? How many grandkids do we have now? Is Covid over? Have any of the family members grown up and stopped being so hateful of people who don’t look like them or love like them?
