101 things in 1001 days

I was searching around the Internet due to boredom and somehow I ended up on the blog of Lindsay Morgan Wright (how cool is that name?), I learned about banned books and a bit about what she does and doesn’t do.  She also has a page about 101 things in 1001 days where she lists her 101 things and crosses out the ones she’s done.  OK initially this seemed lame and girlie, but as I read though the list two things dawned on me.  First I’ve done more things on her list than she has, and secondly could I find 101 things to do 1001 days that I would like to do, that mostly would mean something to me and that I hadn’t already done.

I cheated a bit, I nicked a few things from her list and I also included a few things that I have actually done before but wanted to do again (but for some reason I never get around too).  Mostly though my list is new and (for me anyway) difficult.  I will struggle to complete these things in the next 1001 days, but that’s the point.  Well for me anyway it is.  I could have written an easy list or a list of things I’d already done and crossed most of them off to impress, er well not myself anyway.

It seems like the 101 in 1001 thing is some craze that, up until now, I’d missed.  There are a whole bunch of sites devoted to it even.  So I’m a bit late, but I’ve done my List 101 page now and it’s up on this site, in all its glory.  Hopefully I will do most of these things, and I’m going to go start on one of them now.
