#12 Learn how to manipulate the space-time continuum

Ok, so this one probably won't happen, at least in my lifetime, but I can dream right? I have way to many interests, hobbies, tangents, skills, etc. I am literally a jack of all trades, master of none. I know how to do a lot of things, but not necessarily well. I like to learn new things all the time and then run out of time or ways or energy or patience to finish them. If I could just stop time, bend it, make it last longer maybe I could finish something once in a while, or at least learn it a little better. Also, if I could travel through space, I could visit my friends and family that live so far away at a moment's notice. (Milwaukee, here I come!) Also, traveling back in time to visit my ancestors and see exactly what happened instead of all of this guessing all the time!

#11 Become a Certified Genealogist

I've been "doing" genealogy for almost 10 years now... my how time flies. I've been speaking for much of that time and have really enjoyed the research, writing and speaking aspect of genealogy. I feel that my skills are up to the level where working at becoming certified genealogist would really hone my skills and bring them up to a higher level. Now, if only I had more time, or maybe its if I were managed my time better....

#10 step foot an all 7 continents

I almost said "at least six of the seven" but I figured I ought to just go for it. Antarctica will be a challenge but I'll see what I can do. Travel is something I deeply love so this is an important goal for me to have. Let's see, I've got north America under my belt...

I'd like to attend Mardi Gras...and maybe earn some beads as well.

Update on #4 - Done

So, on January 3, 2009 I got a tattoo for my 35th birthday. I figured I wasn't getting any younger and might as well do it before I chickened out. I love it. It's on my back so I don't see it all the time, which is nice. It's a surprise when I see it in the mirror.

#8 - Own a Jeep again

My mom had a jeep when I was in high school. It's what I learned to drive on. I loved it. I'd get a friend or two and we'd take off up this dirt road in the mountains behind my house and be gone for hours. It was awesome. I would like to have that capability again. My subie just can't climb over rocks like that! So I'd like to own a jeep again, not a new fancy one but one that's already beat up and I won't feel bad about banging it up a bit.

#7 Go Kayaking

I'd really love to learn how to kayak. Not the really heavy-duty-white-water, "Oh My God I just might drown now" kind of kayaking, but kayaking none the less. I love being in nature, I love canoeing, I love water, so this seems like a good thing to try.
