On the 101 in 1001 Bandwagon

Yesterday, after seeing one friend's post and hearing another friend talk about their 101 things to do in 1001 days, I was inspired to create my own. The concise version of this is that I have created 101 goals to complete in about 2.75 years...some goals are easier and done in a few hours (#20 - go to a drive-in theater), while others will obviously take more time, effort, and commitment (see #s 1-5). For more info about this, please go here to the Day Zero Project. I'm going to go ahead and post my full list of 101 things to do on here and as #92 says, one of my goals is to "Regularly update regular blog about dayzeroproject" so I'll go from there.
