Life Lists
This entry was posted on 5/3/2007 4:37 PM and is filed under General.
I was skimming through a magazine article the other day and realized that I have been lucky enough to do a lot of things other people dream about. I've traveled a good deal, eaten at some of the finer restaurants, and lived a pretty good life, especially for someone from a very small town.
But I realized my life list was still incomplete, so I thought I'd jot down a few here and, if anyone else wants to share theirs, invite them to do so.
I want to visit the Greek Islands using either a yacht or a huge sailboat as my base of operations.
Once, in Hawaii, I went into a shark cage with reef sharks schooling around me but now I want to do the same thing with a Great White and as long as I'm discussing sharks I'd also like to free swim with the schooling Hammerheads in the Sea of Cortez and swim with a Whale Shark.
I do not want to skydive.
I have written one book, fulfilling one life goal but now I want to publish one or more.
I want to make a movie.
I want a date with Gina Gershon (although I realize all of the other wishes are more likely to happen).
I want to do a tour of Scotland, focusing on Scotch distilleries and the Guinness factory.
I want to win a major poker tournament.
I want to find a relic of historical significance (such as the Twin Sisters cannons from Texas history).
I want to get into good enough shape to surf one of the bug wave spots on the North Shore of Oahu.
These are just a few of the things on my list.
