the list
everyone has one. some call it a bucket list, others a life list, or a dream sheet. some people keep it in the back of their mind, others with bad memories (like me) get it out so that they don’t forget how important these things are to them. here’s mine in no particular order. nothing will get deleted, but things will more than likely be added. purged from my brain on 7.5.10.
