just knowing that summer is coming makes me feel like i can get all kinds of things done. which then leads to a lot of list making. making lists is one of my favorite things to do. the joy is in crossing things off. i make up things to do just so i can mark them off. i am currently compiling a list of things i want to do. not a bucket list, but more a list of conversation starters.
i'm stuck at 64 things.
- drive across America from coast to coast (preferably in an old rv with a u.s. map hand painted on the side)
