December 7 – Community Prompt: Community. Where have you discovered community, online or otherwise, in 2010? What community would you like to join, create or more deeply connect with in 2011? (Author: Cali Harris)

(laughing maniacally) OH REVERB. Say it ain’t so. (haha hahahaha ha ha – urk…)

So, Marcus: community? You were saying?

Actually, other than little internal Marcus and his impossible dreams, this question really isn’t so bad.

In 2011, I mainly would like to join the community of the non-iron-deficient! That’s probably the most key. I was formally diagnosed as having iron deficiency anemia just Friday – and the doc said it is quite serious – which helps explain things like fatigue, breathlessness, cold feet, and possibly  mood issues.

Hopefully a corollary: in 2011, I would like to be less scattered, so that I can be more intentional in community. Right now my weeks flow by interrupt driven. People tell me – we should get together! – and then I find a place in my schedule and then we do. Or, we set up a recurring thing. That’s good.

But mainly, if someone doesn’t say that, I don’t see them.

Squeaky wheels.

I would like in 2011 to actually notice, intend, and execute intention.
