The SE++ Bucket List

BalefuegoBalefuego Registered User regular
edited July 2008 in Social Entropy++
I'm sure I'm not the only one here who has been suddenly reminded of thier own fragile mortality recently, and I've been thinking a lot today of the things that I've always wanted to do yet haven't had an opportunity yet.


I've been to a fair amount of locales on the North and South Americas but have never been to Europe, and would love to see Ireland and Spain in particular.

I've yet to meet one of you wonderful people in person, although I will hopefully remedy that in the next couple of months.

I'd like to fall in love again, as it's been far too long since the last time.


So tell me SE++, in honor of the departed Zonky whose life goal always seemed to be to cross everything off his own personal list.

What do you want to do before you lose the opportunity?

    I always feel bad about these kinds of things, I don't have any huge dreams
    Go to ComicCon, go to PAX, and make a few other stops on my Nerd World Tour that I've thought about taking for the last year or so
    But that's about it

    I want to go to PAX (or a miniPAX) and meet you people.

    I'd like to go back to Scotland and Alaska.

    I want to take my (future) wife to Ireland.

    Mostly I just want to be around for a long time and be able to raise my son right.

    edit: also, I want to eat lobster in a nice restaurant on a cliff overlooking the ocean in Maine.

    I would also like to write a huge fantasy novel, but since nobody else will want to read it that still doesn't count as productive.

    2) Give the state of North Dakota a bunch of money that MUST be used to build some cool things in the state. Because seriously...

    3) Steal ice cream from a snooty rich bully kid and give it to a really nice poor kid

    Honestly, the stuff with Tonkman got me thinking, because the guy was less than two months older than me.

    I'm actually going to hardcore re-dedicate myself to losing weight again, and once I'm down enough from where I am now, I'm going to go skydiving, my fear of heights can go fuck itself.
