bungee jumping

So, with @joeyelle joining the Peace Corps and leaving for two years, I’m a little on my own and need some things to occupy my time. I’ve had a list of things that I’ve wanted to do that has been doing nothing but growing and growing. I think I’m going to take all of the free time that I’m going to have and fill it with completing all of these things that are on my list. It will be like my own little renaissance! If you see anything on the list that you are interested in doing and live in an area somewhat close to me, feel free to join me for any of these things. I might not finish them all because some take longer than two years to complete, but I at least want to get a start on them.
