pre mortem
Things to get/accomplish/do before I die.
- Owning a complete set of the OED.
- Finishing my degree, perhaps embarking upon a masters.
- Creating a Zen garden. (No I haven't forgotten about all the lovely stones you've all sent me. They're safely set away for the time being.)
- Learning to cook.
- Approach a more Zen-like state of alignment with the world.
- Learn to make a good cup of tea.
- Learn to play a musical instrument.
- Visit Death Valley.
- Visit and touch Uluru.
- at least one more visit to St. Paul's Cathedral in London, so that I can sing the "Ode To Joy" in the whispering gallery.
- at least one (nonbuggy) picnic in the park.
- at least one visit to the Sistene Chapel, so that I can see the celing for myself.
- at least one more opportunity to see Beethoven's 9th performed live (sans the first three movements, I'm all out for the Ode, man.)
- at least one tree in the yard of my eventual house, that I can climb without much difficulty.
- at least one day where I can play every Pink Floyd CD, one after the other, in order. (If you think there isn't a concept, story, or thread, running between all of them, you're smoking bad crack.)
- at least one studio filled to busting with implements of arture.
