Day Zero List September 26, 2010

On September 11, 2010 I decided to join the Day Zero Project and create my own list of 101 things to accomplish in 1001 days.  My end date is June 9, 2013.  When I was making this list, I kept thinking about how different my life will be in 1001 days.  I’m planning to blog most of the items on my list (some might be a little hard, like listening to the top 500 songs).  So here is the list!
