read something by Hemingway
The Sun Also Rises

I’m half-way through The Sun Also Rises. I’m really quite enjoying it.



Go indoor rock climbing
Untitled

Clicked off “Go Indoor Rock Climbing” off of my list this evening. It was totally awesome and exhilarating.



watch the AFI Top 100 movies (read all 7 entries…)
I did it.

When I decided to complete the list, I had seen 54 of 100. After watching “Duck Soup” this evening, I’ve made it through all 100. Some dogs… some new favorites. It was most interesting to see which older films still held up, and which ones clearly offered something edgy at the time, but whose time had evidently passed. The enthusiasm I felt as I broke into the last 15 was great, and the sensation of completion is awesome.
