101 Things to do in 1001 Days List- Now complete! (See previous post for info!)
1. Take photos every day for a year
2. Go horseback riding
It has been years. I can’t *believe* it has been years! I used to ride every day. Of course, that’s when I had my own horse, which made a difference. But still. Get thee to a stable!
3. Do another Blogathon
4. Enjoy Afternoon Tea at the Grand Floridian (again)
5. Ride a Segway
6. Take a yoga class
7. Kiss someone new
8. Buy a teapot
9. Behind the Seeds tour at Epcot’s Land pavilion
10. Eat crème brulee
11. Try 30 new things in 30 days
EDIT- I’ve been at this for a few days now, and am very much considering upgrading it to 365 New Things in 365 Days, it’s so fun!
12. Visit Coronado Springs and Caribbean Beach, so that I will have officially been to every WDW Resort (And Fort Wilderness! I forgot it!)
13. Try the school bread from Norway at Epcot that everyone raves about
14.Clean up my Favorites folder in IE.
I have SO much stuff in there! Sort through, organize, clean out the sites that no longer exist or I no longer need, rediscover stuff I forgot about.
15. Blog every day for a month
16. Take an American Tribal Style bellydance class
17. Find at least one thing each day that makes me happy and record it everyday for a year- I saw this on someone’s list at 43things.com, and thought it sounded very good.
18. Attend the Orlando Fringe Festival
19. Visit London
I’ve been drawn to this city for as long as I can remember. Bill Bryson has a theory that everyone has numerous "homes" in the world, and we travel because we are in search of them. (Oh man, I think it was Bryson... it may have been Steinbeck!)
20. Do another "26 Things" photo project
21. Get a tattoo-
I’ve been trying to decide what I want to get for ages now, so if I don’t make up my damn mind within the next few years, I am going to kick myself. I might let you kick me, too.
22. Dentist! I have several things that I need to have done, and will finally have insurance soon!

25. Catch a show at Comedy Warehouse

I have been wanting to go to the Wine Room in Winter Park for AGES. I heard it is awesome. Oh, and Melting Pot rocks! Especially for dessert.
My book recommendation: The World According to Garp. My all-time favorite. I also recommend anything by David Sedaris.
Hi,
I followed you over here from the DIS boards - I lurk there often and have really enjoyed your trip reports. I saw your list and was inspired to create my own list. One of the challenge I layed out for myself was to email someone I don't know IRL. I knew exactly who I needed to contact. - Thank You for your openness to life and for your wonderful way of looking at the positive and for LOVING DISNEY!

I wanted to encourage you to watch Pushing Daisies - it is a great show! (And if you like it, try to find Wonderfalls on DVD from a few years ago.)
And to recommend Pride and Prejudice as your Jane Austen book.
Enjoying your blog!
(Elmo888 from disboards.)
Aren't these really the same thing? (Or when you attend the Star Wars Weekend, can't you cross off #75, too?)
33. Star Wars Weekends!
75. Attend a nerd convention of some sort
(Elmo888 again.)
Holy cow, you guys didnt tell me this published in the smallest font EVER! It should be better now.
I love David Sedaris! Me Talk Pretty is my favorite. They're much better on cd, though!
I have caught a few eps of Pushing Daisies on abc.com, but as I have no TV, the rest are hard to get to. Patience! And I totally own the entire Wonderfalls series on DVD ;)
Yes, it's better now...only HALF of it is in the smallest font ever. ;)
As for books to read...here's a few recent favorites I'd recommend: Outlander, by Diana Gabaldon (whole series, that's the first one). The Time Travelers Wife by Audrey Niffenegger (it's going to be a movie, so you should read it first!). His Dark Materials Trilogy, by Philip Pullman (The Golden Compass just came out as a movie -- I haven't seen it, but the books are great! and they're kids, so they're cheap!)
