35 goals

most of you know i make a list of goals every year. so by the time january 24 rolls around, i'll have a list of 32 things i want to accomplish while i'm 32 years old. i am not going to show you that list today. no, not today. instead, i'm going to talk about things i plan to do before i turn 35. some of these are goals i've had set for awhile, some are being made up right now to fill in the list. i'll let you decide which you think are serious and which i never plan to accomplish and/or keep track of. :)
