It’s blazin’ in our neck of the woods, so the only acceptable thing to do is go 16 stories underground in a cavern. No, really. In case you haven’t guessed, I completed #24.6: Visit the following places I have never been: Luray Caverns. Don’t worry — the jazz hands will break his fall.

Learn How to Play Chess
Meet Isaac, the man who helped me complete goal #9: Learn how to play chess. I went for a walk to Dupont Circle to warm up (my office is freezing). I sat on a bench and watched two men play chess.

A Mid-Year Recap of Our Goals
Instead of writing a blog post about the fact that we are at the mid-year mark and have six months left to complete our 2012 goals, we taped our conversation, as we had a two-hour car ride and time to kill yesterday.

Don’t … Continue reading Work at a Fast Food Chain for One Day
Keep Track of Yearly Memorable Moments
My “memorable moments” we’re erased when I restored my phone. I’m a jackass. Writing down my goals is actually a goal of mine (Goal #2) Can’t show you my stuff though. 🙂
The WhiteOut PodCast Complete!
I had a goal(Goal #10 to be exact) to start a Podcast. Basically, it’s a chance to vent on current topics in the world…mainly sports. I’d love to have people subscribe but I don’t care if I don’t have any followers to honest. It was a goal of mine to complete for a while and … Continue reading The WhiteOut PodCast Complete!
Visit the Jimmy Stewart Museum
#16: Visit James Stewart museum, if it’s still open - DONE! After telling her about this trip, My mom: “When did you start liking old movies?” Me: “I’m not sure,” as I thought about the picture of Judy Garland that I cut out of a newspaper and placed in my jewelry box when I was … Continue reading Visit the Jimmy Stewart Museum
