thought of some more for the big 4 0

18. Cannes Film Festival - take Hermanas
19. Hike some of the Appalachian Trail which could be really cool as long I don't see any freaky "The Hills have Eyes" people wondering around town.
20. Try to get "imaginary" husband to a social event which Hermana is attending.

Well, the list is half way done. I am pretty proud of myself and excited about the list. Some of it is definitely within reach and there are a few that are a bit out there. Now I just need to find 20 more.

21. Learn to windsurf - something I always say I am going to do.
22. Go to the Super Bowl Game - preferably with the 49ers or Steelers playing.
23. Go to a professional basketball game.
24. Ocean Kayaking.
25. Spa vacation in Mexico which I said I was going to do for my graduation but the price kept going up. I hope to some day go; someday soon.

Okay I need 15 more suggestions. This list making is going so well.

I also thought I would try and see every film at the SFIFF but that cute boy Ben said it was impossible. I believe him because he worked for the fest for like ever.

# 20 is obviously the greatest challenge. It will probably take your death and subsequent funeral to accomplish, so it's better if you take it off the list and leave it in Unlikely-Land (especially since I'm planning on dying before you anyway).

Ocean kyaking is HORRIBLE. It is ten thousand times harder than it looks and zero fun whatsoever. If you can work this into a tropical vacation and the kyak tour guides are major hottie-studs, then ok go for it and have them come to your rescue no more than 5 minutes after the supposed adventure begins. Otherwise, I do not advise this activity. Snorkeling is much more enjoyable. Have you ever snorkeled? If not, put that on your list instead.

What about Italy? Everyone raves about it, but I don't understand why. The Italians themselves will tell you they live in a "third world country", and none of them has a high opinion of any part of their homeland located south of where they live (i.e. they are racist geographists in the worst sense). Venice might be nice, though (I didn't make it there). You could put checking it out before it sinks into the sea on your list.

How about something practical for the list? I nominate: "learn two alternate ways to get onto the Bay Bridge BLINDFOLDED". Ha-ha! :-)

Queen you are quite insightful but Ocean Kayking trip is booked! All the players have been chosen now we just need a full moon. Got the trip at Marie & Ritchie's Aids Benefit and so we must go. but I will not be jumping into the water as it will be too cold no matter what season.

How about putting getting braces on the list?
