  1. 1. The new Rick Riordan is good but not as good as Percy Jackson.
    2. I can teach you to play pinochle.
    3. I can teach you some self-defense stuff if you'd like.
    4. If you'd have me, I'd definitely go to the Cherry Blossom festival with you. I'll bring the sake.
    5. In number 86, I believe you're looking for "sure" and not "shore".

  2. This is an amazing list! Everyone should have something like this. What a great idea to help a deployment fly by!

    1. Thanks! It certainly keeps the blahs away! I'm currently planning when to learn how to blow glass with my sisters-- something to definitely look forward to! :-)

  3. What a fantastic list! Hope having something to focus on is making the deployment a little easier. [Is that a stupid thing to say? I have no experience of such a situation!]

    Good luck with crossing everything off :)

  4. I currently have a 25 things for my 25th year list going. I wrote a blog post about it over at ChrystinaNoel (if you're interested- http://chrystinanoel.com/2013/01/01/hello-2013/). I'm making decent progress so far - I have no idea when I'm going to find time to write a book though, and I still need to pick my three old movies to watch. Any and all suggestions are welcome :)

  5. Oh!! And I love the fact that your list is divided into categories. A lot. It makes it seem so simple. I love the fact that you're writing letters to John everyday. And look at that book list! (I'm impressed.) Finally - the words "nail art thingy" are great.
