You're doing better than I am on my Life List.

Idea for your corks-my aunt is collecting to make a wreath out of hers. And a friend of mine is making a wine cork board.

JMJE said...

Yay California. Looks like you are making some good progress on your list. I need to work on my yearly goal list.

Shana said...

Great job...you are really burning through things. And congrats to California for finally doing the right thing!!!

Tonja said...

How about this... when we both finish P90X2 we get a group together to go to The Kitchen? I know we don't know each other, but when it involves good food, I don't think that matters :)

Charlotte said...

Great job, Hutch! And monthly massages is an awesome thing to add to this list. I dig.

John said...

I was followed by 30 Rock's .com without any prompting on my part . . . we've actually had twitter conversations . . . and then he unfollowed me. :-(

I haven't been able to allow myself to fall for quite some time.

And, if you're ever in the midatlantic states, I'm always looking for 10k/half-marathon partners.

MiMi said...

Butter beer...as in Harry Potter?? I gots a recipe for that. :)

Cathy said...

Damn woman, you are rocking this list! I am very impressed. I just noticed #97 is learn how to whistle. Are you trying to learn the whistle where you stick your fingers in your mouth so it's really loud? I can't do that but my mom could blow your ear drums out. So loud.
