Things to Do Before I Die
I have
always had a dread of becoming a passenger in life.

Several
years ago (2002?) I made a List of Things to Do Before I Die.
The
list was forgotten about through two moves until I assigned my students
the list-making project as a January writing assignment. In part
encouraged by their enthusiastic response and in part
because I
adore
keeping track of numbers, lists, goals, and projects, I decided to
revamp and revitalize my list.
Furthermore, ever the masochist, I've decided to
share the list with others. That way, I'll actually have to
do the stuff on the list. (This is my working theory.)
The list is color coded as follows, and you can jump to any section by
clicking on the section title below.
