101

Many thanks to Katie, for inspiring me to do 101 things in 1001 days. Check out her list on her blog, This Side. Please note that some of these are taken from my list of Things to do Before I Die, which really accomplishes 2 things at once. Two lists. Whatever.

See the original Day Zero website here, and post a link to your list!
