    Gettin’ Cultcha’d

    One of my favorite parts about the Life To Do List is that it includes items that expand my knowledge of culture. In particular, #33 (Watch 25 of the last 10 years’ Academy-nominated Documentary Feature Films) and # 67 (Read 15 of the “Big Reads”)...

    #25: Tradition! Tradition!

    This was one of the more fun (and accidentally completed) items on the Life To Do list. #25 was start a tradition. Thursday nights are important to me. For many years now (more accurately five seasons), Grey’s Anatomy has been a part of my life....
