How to watch all ER episodes
It took me
15 years
It made me
Glad to be done

How I did it: I watched ER from the beginning, and I thought it was a great show.  It should have ended a few years ago, though.  The last two or three seasons are not worth watching.  The first 12-13 years are worth it, though! Read how I did it…

clean out my car
Untitled 5 months ago

My wife helped me with this goal. She bought me a car detailing package in a silent auction, so they did the hard work for me. I’ve done a pretty good job of keeping the car clean since then.

Naturally, every time my wife gets in the car, it’s on the one day where there’s a Burger King bag on the floor. They’re never there for more than a day anymore, and there is never more than one.

Untitled 5 months ago

I stayed up until 3 am this morning finishing A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson. It was recommended to me by one of the No Kidding members. Well worth the time.

Learn to rollerblade (read all 3 entries…)
Stupid rain 5 months ago

I’m trying to keep on with this goal, but the weather is not cooperating. I realize we’re in a drought, but can it please not rain for a day or two?

I did make some progress. I’m still at three miles for now, but the last time I went out, I stopped because of a time limit, not because I was too tired. Quite a change from almost calling a cab to get back to my car the first time out.
