I may be crazy

[pinksonia]

It's a new year and I have a new header courtesy of the gift giving challenge at gleeverse .  I also have a list of extensive resolution-like things, but expressed in the infinitely more doable format of mission101 .  I became aware of the mission of making a list of 101 goals to complete over 1001 days (or ~ 2.75).  Each goal is supposed to be realistic and measurable.  I've tried to stay away from having too many goals that require large out put of money or that hinge on the co-operation of someone else.  Many goals have numbers after them to indicate how they will be measured; however, if you see something that you think I might need to further define quantitatively, please let me know.  Most of these are things that I have been meaning to do but somehow never get around to,  some are habits I hope to take with me past the end date, some are fears I hope to get over, and a couple are just silly fun.  I also have three blank spaces at the end for goals that may come upon me during the journey. 

Start Date: January 1, 2011
End Date: September 28, 2013
