Relatively Tongue-in-Cheek Stuff

...I'm gonna do, within the next year:

• get a passport
• use the passport--to leave the country
• get a tattoo (on my ankle?)
• attempt to reconcile with my old friend Andy
• have my tonsils removed
• visit exotic locales, e.g. N.Y.
• reduce my wardrobe bulk by half by eliminating items that are never worn
• acquire a frivolous (i.e. non-winter) hat in which I do not resemble Chip or Dale
• sell the fruits of some creative labor, e.g. writing, photography, or jewelry
• find someone by whom homemade fettucine Alfredo would be appreciated, and make it for them
• ditto--banana cream pie
• have a (or more than "a") 'spa day' with a (or more than "a") friend, rather than just talking about doing it "someday"
• serious roadtrip

...and "someday":

• cruise the Panama Canal
• receive and wear gift(s) of expensive [and gorgeous] jewelry
• travel "spur of the moment"
• have a child
• become 'a person who runs'
• have socially-undetected sex on public transportation and/or in a crowded bar or restaurant
• live for some period, however brief, as a "professional writer"
• really learn how to swim
• learn a non-Romance language
