Before I die, I want to:
~Ride in a hot air balloon
~Sky dive
~Rock climb, up real rocks, not indoor man-built ones
~Skinny dip in the ocean
~Bike across the US and down the West Coast and maybe even up the East Coast
~Do some real camping that doesn’t involve indoor privies and Olympic sized swimming pools
~Get a real job that uses my actual degree
~Have savings. Real ones. Maybe even a 401k or something else fancy with letters in the name.
~Be out of debt. Damn credit cards.
~Play all of the Final Fantasy games (am I dork? yes, yes indeedy, but I want to do it anyway)
~Get my passport, so’s that I can travel to — Italy, Australia and assorted areas of South America.
~Own a car. Maybe not a new one, but one with less than 50000 miles on it. And actually pay the insurance!
~Puppy. Want one. A cute one with big, big feet and fuzzy fur.
~Own a home with my office in it painted green. It must be green. And I
think I want a yellow bathroom too. But that one’s debatable
~Hike the Grand Canyon
~Meet a famous person. Well, famous outside the realm of biology. Don’t really care who, but I want a picture of them with me.
~Catch up on all this damn cross-stitching.
~Learn to snorkel, and scuba, and ski, and windsurf.
~Swim with dolphins. (I bet they’re not as cute as they look. They’re probably bastards)
~Eat all kinds of strange things. Like shark. And turtle. And rattlesnake. Maybe some HuFu…*that’s all I can think of right now, and it’s time for work…perhaps more will come to me at work.

What the hell is HuFu?
You want to bike across the US?!? Please tell me you are talking MOTORCYLING and not actual bicycling, because I’m tired just THINKING about it… hahahahaha.
Great list. I’ve done a few things on it. Like ride in a hot-air balloon, skinny dip in the ocean (even had SEX in the ocean)
, done real wilderness camping, got a passport, and a car, and had a home office that was my color (terracotta). I’ve skied. And I’ve eaten octopus (does that count as a weird food?).
That was my question – what is HuFu?!? My office was painted green in my old house – now it’s blue. That will change, though. Eventually.
My sisters swam with the dolphins. Said they were just as cute up close.
Great list.
