Random Fodder

I am shifting my list of 43 Things from a list of annual goals to a list of lifetime goals. Thus, I have dropped a couple goals and picked up a couple goals, and I plan on doing further maintenance in the future.

One of my 43 Things that I have kept is to interview my son Sebastian on video every year. I have thought this was a great idea and I wanted to do it before he started kindergarten. This year I added the goal so I could do it during the summer between kindergarten and first grade, but it still hasn't gotten done. So, for some lamebrained reason, I decided to use the Challenge feature of 43 Things to try and motivate myself.

So, my current challenge on 43 Things is to interview my son by December 31, 2007 (70 days from now) or else I will: make three snow angels wearing only a pair of shorts.

I tried to make the penalty something annoying enough that I wouldn't want to do it, but easy enough that I would actually penalize myself if I failed. Hopefully, it won't come down to this and I'll get that interview done in the next month or two!

Of course, since this is a recurring goal, I will mark it as completed each year when I complete the interview and then re-add it to my list when the time comes around again.
