I didn't have any really great resolutions for this year, aside from not eating brownies for breakfast anymore, and I was wondering what my goal for the year would be. Then, my sister told me her resolution: "to be badass!" I immediately informed her I would be copying her stellar resolution, only to find out that the Matt was actually the originator of this gem. Even though my main goal was to avoid those brownies (and cheesecakes, cookies, scones, cupcakes, etc.), I had a small list of things I wanted to accomplish during 2011. They are pretty discrete events though and didn't seem to constitute a "resolution" that would last an entire year. Last year, Jen and I intended on creating a 2010 bucket list but forgot about it part way through the year; this year we were going to succeed at that goal. So, combining the resolution to "be badass," my discrete goals, Jen's goals, and our 2011 bucket list, Jen and I sat in Panera, shivering every time the door opened thanks to my poor choice of seats, and brainstormed our "2011 Badass Lifestyle List."
The 2011 Badass Lifestyle List
Go white water rafting
Go zip-lining
Hike El Cap with Matt and Scott
Yosemite
Learn to do jumps on a snowboard
Finish the Panera run without stopping
run a half marathon in under three hours
Go atv'ing
Snorkeling "somewhere pretty" and La Jolla does not count
Go horseback riding
Try a new food a month
Volunteer 24 hours
With the goals set, the only question remaining is how will we pay for it?
