The Bucket List

So I have this friend named Darcy. She's pretty much...awesome. Don't worry, I will be writing a post about her soon enough, but she created this "bucket list" of her own a while back. I remember thinking "man, I want to do that too!" but I haven't really remembered it until a few days ago. Some of these things I've already accomplished, but they are things I've always wanted to do anyway. And what's funny is that after I wrote this list out, I found her list again, and found some very similar things on there! So Darc, maybe we can be Vegan together, while upholstering some furniture in our homes that we buy.
