18 Down, 767 Days To Go

Well, it's only been 3 months since I've actually updated and I really should have more done than this at this point (I mean really I can't sit down and complete some lists?) but here's what we've got:

#2 - I'm on my way. I've lost 11 El-Bees at this point.
#5 - The 5k/10k challenge begins with the Revlon Run Walk in May. I don't usually ask for donations on this but you could always throw in a little breast cancer support.
#15 - I'm heavily considering our local Habitat for Humanity organization as my charity of choice. It has been in my field of vision a lot lately.
#54 - Fiscal Jason continues his reign of terror on my checks. I even have automatic deposit into savings. I'm responsible like what.
#55 - Completed! The South Beach Diet forced it on me. Breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks all home made for nearly 2 weeks.
#75 - Completed! I just emailed with my old college friend Stacie this week.
#1 - Completed! SXSW was spectacular.
#70 - I had originally intended only to go to SXSW for the interactive but the music festival beckoned and so, unintentionally I knocked out two tasks in one.
#86 - I'm way behind on my 52 Books in 52 Weeks but at least it got me to get this done.
#97 - The Heat (who currently hold my heart while my Laker love goes on hiatus) played the Clippers and, I think, lost in overtime at the Staples Center in January. I always forget just how large Shaq really is. He's a beast. Sadly, Dwyane Wade didn't play.
