Filling My Bucket List

Sticky Postings

Is 31 too young to have a bucket list? I'm not a morbid type of person but I came to the realization that a good portion of my life is gone and many things that I had hoped to do by now have passed me by. I don't want to end up in floating on a cloud at the end of my life having remorse about the things that I have never done. So internet folks, I'm making a bucket list.

I'm going to leave this post as a sticky on top so you can see as I add things to it and if I get to accomplish anything. I'm not one for big things like climbing a mountain or anything but I feel a need to DO something with my life apart from being a wage slave and virtual life liver. If I have kids and they're sitting around my death bed, I'd like to be able to look back and say, you know your mom did some crazy shit and had a damn good time! Now have a party instead of a funeral and don't waste my insurance money.

Bucket List Item Complete: Cut Hair Very Short
I totally forgot to cross something off my bucket list. On Mother's Day I cut my hair. I didn't just cut my hair, I cut my hair OFF. How can I best describe this? Something of a cross between Pink, Rihanna, Ellen and Halle Berry. I guess that might be

Love it! - except the Brazilian. Would rather do a Brazilian than get a Brazilian, ya know?

I can't technically SAY that in case BF reads the blog, but you know... Plus the Brazilian has no happy ending.

No! It's never too early to have a bucket list! The way I see it, bucket lists are a set of goals(albeit quite reckless and more wild goals sometimes) but it's still a set of things to achieve over the course of your lifetime. Doesn't matter whether you do it sooner or later.

I finally realized based on your post why they call it a bucket list. Thanks for the "aha" moment!
