What not to do

Nothing Special

I’m not going to try and nab first place or anything because that’s just not happening anytime soon. I don’t care about the length of the marathon – long or short – I just want to BE in one. (Preferably an amateur race, though.)
For my forgetful mind

I’m making a list right here of the things I’ve gotten rid of lately. This does NOT include things I’ve come across on 43 Things and marked that I’ve done when they’re not on my list. Here goes:
-Stop being someone’s sloppy seconds
-Go to Spyder House
-Redo my room
-Go skinny dipping
”’Know thyself?’ If I knew myself, I’d run away.”
