How I did it
How to move to Tacoma
It took me
3 months
It made me
relieved

How I did it: Although I say it took me 3 months, nearly all of that was waiting for the right place to be open in my landlord's Tacoma house.  I finally moved most of my stuff last weekend and am very happy to be living down here, especially since all the bat-shit-crazy weather is making it hard to travel between Seattle and Tacoma without having a vehicle than can travel through snow or floods.

How to visit 1000 places
It took me
22 months
It made me
unchanged, really.

How I did it: Well, I did kinda start out adding a bunch of places I had already been, but then I started adding only places I had just been to for the first time.  I just kept keeping track of where I had been and tried to go to new places once I had visited the other places on my list.A lot of the time I would also count places that I just zoomed through on my bike, such as Spanaway.  Traveling always helped increase the count especially du… Read how I did it…

How to mount a Sony Megabass onto my bike rack
It made me
ghetto-fabulous

How I did it: It all started when I found this abandoned Sony Megabass at a bus stop in the UDistrict.  I took it home and had a plan to mount it on a bike with a bike rack.  Eventually I finally mounted a bike rack onto one of my bikes.  Then I had to make many many trips to the hardware store to get just the right materials to mount the Megabass the way I wanted on the bike rack.  I ended up sawing two pieces of strong stainless s… Read how I did it…

stop getting wasted (read all 2 entries…)
keeping it under control 6 months ago

I was able to make it through a weekend of camping with my drinking friends who have a biking problem without blacking out. I’m pretty stocked about that. I came prepared with a shot glass to measure how much I drank and tried to avoid people passing around bottles of booze as best I could.

wake up and immediately think of God
Progress 7 months ago

I’ve sort of got the reverse of this goal accomplished. For a while now I have either wrote in a prayer journal or read a verse before going to bed. It has become a habit as I nearly always remember or at least think about it before going to bed now. I’m thinking that if I start doing this in the morning I can accomplish this goal and start off each day with a healthy dose of the word and/or prayer.
