I got a forwarded email the other day, entitled Bucket List. Obviously I caved and opened it. Basically it's a survey. You fill it out, then send it to all your friends, and everyone laughs over the responses. I'll admit, I was a big fan of these in College. It felt like gossip I was allowed to know and pass around. So back to this particular email. It was called the Bucket List and you're supposed to put an "x" next to every item you've done. Now, I don't know who's bucket list this is supposed to be, but its lame. Let me just preface this post with that. LAME in capital letters. Its horribly lacking in some areas and completely ridiculous in others. I think it leaves out a lot of important items. So now you may be asking yourself why i'm even bringing it up? Well the weather is wonky again, i'm super tired, and I'm totally not "working" at work. If you feel so inclined, fill it out for yourself. I've added a brief explanation for each because that's more fun...
So without further ado:
