list time

Do you ever feel absolutely COMPELLED to write a list? Like it's burning a hole in your pocket?

Today I was just itching to write lists all day, but my job is such that I can't divert my attention for more than 3 seconds otherwise I'll end up covered in blood or dropping equipment that would cost thousands of dollars.

But now I can finally get to my lists... let's see if I can still remember...

LIST #1: Events, programs, travels etc I'd like to attend next year:

1) SXSW Austin, March. 4-5 day trip perhaps?
2) Sasquatch ? (decided can't afford this year due to other travels...)
3) Wine tasting day in Woodinville area
4) Alpine climbing training program offered by Mountaineers. Starts Fall, goes through-Summer??
5) Day of the Dead in Mexico... Guanajuato or Oaxaca. 7-10 days, leading up to Nov 1st & 2nd
6) X-country ski hut trip by Mt Rainier
7) Trip to San Fran to visit Marty again
8) Visit family in Wisconsin & Illinois
9) Up to Vancouver BC and Victoria... Canada in general. Why is it so close yet I've only been a few times?
10) Spring/early summer backpack trip in Canyonlands Utah
