Big Plans For 2010

There is a game called "I have never". I knew of it as a Girls Camp campfire game, but you might know of it as a drinking game. Basically everyone goes around the group and states something they have never done. Anyone in the group who has done that, either tosses in one of the (10-20) sticks they collected, or takes a shot. Ultimately, the person who wins is the person who has done the fewest things.

I have a hate/love relationship with that game. I love it because unless there is someone under the age of 12 in the group, I'm gonna win. I hate it because unless there is someone under the age of 12 in the group, I'm gonna win. This means that most 12-year-olds have done more things than I have. Wanna guess how much that sucks?

So after I got divorced, I created a list of things I have never done.* I've made it a goal to eventually do all of them! After I've done them, I put them in italics. (And yes, this list is a bit embarrassing.) In no particular order:
