Instead of the standard resolutions everyone always states and then fails to check off in the upcoming year (myself included) I decided to simplify for 2012. For this next year, I have put together a list of 12 specific items to accomplish in the 12 months that lie ahead. One might be inclined to say that they appear to be just like a list of resolutions, but I assure you they are not. This list contains 12 things that the average person of my age has likely already been able to cross off their list of life accomplishments, but because it is me, and anxiety has been known to creep in during even the most mundane of tasks, these 2012 bucket list items have yet to be completed for me, until now.
1. pee outside
2. sleep outside
3. swim in a lake
4. attempt to discover a love of rollercoasters
5. go skiing
6. go to a thrift store, and buy something
7. mow a lawn
8. ask somebody on a date
9. ask a stranger for their phone number, and call them
10. "go with the flow" (this one is extra special and will require me to hand over complete trust to a dear comrade who will be in charge of planning an entire day of activities, of which I will not be allowed to protest)
11. shotgun a beer (though I am still not entirely sure what this means)
12. befriend a dog
May the adventures begin....
1, 2, And 3 can all probably be done at the same time.
ReplyDeleteAnd I enjoy reading your blog. You are a very entertaining writer. I hope you are doing well! Next time I am in Salt Lake we should catch up (which would have been tomorrow, but plans changed).
Pahahahaha I love it! Let me know if you need me to help you accomplish any of these ; D Sage is always available for you to befriend (maybe sleepover style), I enjoy camping (can knock out a couple with this one), Lagoon is worth it at least once a year and the DI is not too intimidating to me anymore. Have FUN!
ReplyDeleteIf we try hard enough, we can check off this entire list in a weekend (in the Summer).
