I'm never going to finish sharing my list of 50 things I want to do before I turn 50 if I don't do it now, so here are remaining 25 items.
1. Allow a snail to crawl on my arm. I promised Beamish that I would do this ages ago. Time to just do it.
2. Go zip lining because it looks like crazy fun. Though, I will be concerned that I could wet my panties.
3. Have brunch at a nice restaurant on Mother's Day. I don't care if it's a cliche, I would still like to do it before I have to use a walker and can't carry as much food.
4. Attend a football game at the Big House. I don't like football, but there is something about being in a crowd of 106,000 people that is intriguing.
5. Attend at DCFC game. I enjoyed the World Cup and, frankly, soccer players usually have great looking legs. Yes, I am objectifying the players. But, I have probably almost reached the age at which I am unfuckable, so why not watch a bunch of young, sweaty, athletic guys run around in shorts?
6. I want to go fowling while it is still hip. Who wants to take me?
7. Time to pump up my tires and bike far more often than I do. It's better for my health and the environment, a win-win.
8. I live in Canada and have for a while now. Yet, I have never been curling. How have I not tried a sport during which I get to yell "harder" and not be called a trollop for doing so?
9. I have been saying this for five years. But, as I said earlier, I have lost confidence in my book. I still want to self-publish it. I'll have to learn to love it again.
10. Another Canadian thing to try: attend a maple syrup festival and tapping for syrup.
11. If my 16 year old cat dies, I'm pretty sure that I want to rescue an older dog.
12. Watch a movie a month, starting in May. I watch one with Beamish every Saturday, but I thought I might add a non-kid movie to the routine, just for me.
13. I need to walk the walk and use public transit once a month.
14. I really want to see Madame Butterfly. Hopefully it flutters into the Detroit Opera House before I turn 50.
15. Again, walking the walk - I want to find a food bank and work there regularly.
16. Attend a performance of the DSO.
17. Attend a performance of the WSO.
18. Audition for community theatre. This idea has rumbled about in my head for many years now, so why not try it?
19. Complete a NYT Sunday Crossword Puzzle. It might take me a while and I'm not too proud to seek assistance on it.
20. Meditate twice a day, everyday! I'm off to a good start - 22 days straight so far.
21. I am about to write something incredibly vain and superficial. I want to hide the visible veins that currently decorate both of my knees. If that requires some sort of laser therapy, that's fine
22. I'd like to learn at least rudimentary Spanish or Ukrainian.
23. I'm always saying this, but music=happiness=life. Time to really make sure I see live music at least once a month.
24. Make a fall colors trip.
25. Sleep outside, in the backyard.
That's it. I think most of it is doable. Any and all of it will be fun. Who wants to join me as I skip toward the half-century mark?

I'm in for some of those! Come to Cleveland and we'll do the maple syrup festival in Burton! Also, I can do some of the live shows if we can connect! I think I need to make up my own list. It's 13 months away, for me!

You'll have to pick up the pace girlie.
