Slightly Boring

99 Things

I saw this post on a couple of friends' blogs so I thought I would fill it out. Maybe in a few years I'll be able to look back and check some more off? Hmm...probably not. Cause, um, when am I going to do things like run a marathon or go bungee jumping or hitch hike? Those all seem like terrible ideas. I have only done about a third of these.
