52 in 52 weeks

I’ve been following along with Kelly’s blog for awhile as she tried to do 52 things in the course of a year in 2011. I thought that might be fun to try, but in a hypothetical kind of way. But this morning I saw her put up a new list for 2012 so I thought, “Oh what the hell, why not?”.

So here is my list of 52 things I’d like to accomplish in a year. I’m going to start it from my birthday last week, so it’ll be “52 things I want to do in my 34th year”. Kind of catchy, no?

They’re not in any particular order. Some of them I blatantly stole from Kelly’s blog. Some of them we already have planned. Some of them I do NOT want to do, but they really need doing. And some of them I just came up with on the spur of the moment.
