Wah wah.

Man, this week has been something else.

I am exhausted, crabby, and just overall really negative so it's probably best to just let me be.

Oh and I'm pretty sure I live in the worst state in the union.

I need a break.

So progressive!

Well I'm not quite a month into my 101 in 1001, and I've crossed 2 off my list. Visit Seattle and try scallops were both on my list and are now completed! Boom.

Here are some pictures from my lovely trip to the Northwest...


























99 to go!

It's go time.

I finally finished my 101 in 1001. I feel most of them are attainable goals so we'll just have to see how the next 1001 days play out. Also if I have any repeats in the list, I'm just taking that as a sign that that is something I really want to achieve.

I hope to have my list completed by October 2, 2013, with my official start date being tomorrow, January 4, 2011. (Totally do-able, right?)

I will keep everyone up-to-date on the goals I achieve here on this blog so stay tuned and wish me luck!

Bring it 2011.

Wooo! Happy new year! I love our cyclic attitude towards new years and new beginnings. I think it's quite fascinating actually.

This new year is even more exciting because it is the start of a new decade. Fancy, huh? I love how decades seem to always have their defining characteristics. Each year we shape the decade a bit more into what it will be remembered for. Good stuff.

So live it up, people! We are shaping history every day.

Oh, my new year's resolution? Be more spontaneous.

Boom.
