I'm doing 37 things
My passion wandered far away from bicycling. I may take it up again (I have two really superb road bikes), but I haven’t ridden in ages. I’m not really interested in bicycle touring anymore.

Recent entries
I’ve been a blogging fool. I have several blogs, only three of which I’ll own up to here.
- My newest blog, which I started a month ago. I should update this much more frequently and that’s on my agenda.
- 50 Words, a blog of reviews that I publish. Each review is exactly 50 words long
-no more, no less. We’re up to 450 posts so far. - My wordpress blog, which I rarely update anymore.
Of these three, the second one has by far the most traffic and the new one is just a baby. I really do need to get better at promoting myself and writing stuff other people would actually read. I can mark this one as complete, though.
I was in an accident a while ago that renders me unable to bite my nails anymore. I’ll live and I’d rather have given up this habit voluntarily, but I might as well mark it ‘done’.
I’m only marking it ‘not worth it’, because the injury was severe, painful, nearly deadly, and I’m not going to be 100% ever again. A hospital stay, some surgery, and a long rehabilitation process makes this one not quite worth the effort. At least I don’t gnaw my nails off anymore, though.
