101 Things about 1001 Days.

See also. End date is... let's say start at the end of January. The end date is Saturday, October 29, 2011.

Coming up with the list is hard.

Some of these are things I've done before and don't want to stop doing, but I think that counts.

1. See more than five movies at a film festival.
2. Complete a roleplaying freelance assignment.
3. Submit a short story to a paying market.
4. Self-pub something via Lulu or other apropos channel.
5. [redacted]
6. Release software. (Probably my DDI Character Builder iPhone hack.)
7. Visit Walt Disney World with michele_blue.
8. See all the Oscar nominees for Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Film, Best Animated Film, Best Directing, Best Documentary, and Best Foreign Film for any year. 2007 looks pretty plausible, actually.
9. Publish a podcast. Five episodes minimum.
10. Run five one-shot games (or two-shots).
11. Shed old clothing, particularly the T-shirts.
12. Optimize Abbi's pre-raid gear.
13. Get someone Horde-side to the level cap.
14. Alphabetize the paperbacks.
15. Organize the trade paperbacks and hardcovers.
16. Take Dad to another sporting event.
17. Go to a football game. (I've only done this once, go figure. BOO YALE.)
18. Take a course.
19. Finish entering The 100 Best Films to Rent You've Never Heard Of.
20. Get up to 50% viewed on They Shoot Pictures, Don't They?'s 21st Century's Most Acclaimed Pictures list.
21. Keep personal inbox under 50 messages consistently.
22. Learn Python passably.
23. Learn Ruby passably.
24. Run D&D for Jacob and/or family members.
25. Walk in the 2009 Boston AFSP walk.

25 for now. I'm sure there're things I've forgotten. Feel free to suggest stuff.

26. Replace the bed.
27. Cook a David Eyre's Pancake at home.
28. Visit michele_blue's family.
29. Write 10 levels of megadungeon.
30. Read Gene Wolfe's Book of the New Sun

I have wanted to do this for years, but I could NOT come up with a list!! You've inspired me to think about it again, though!

It's interesting that it's a 1001 day span, not 101 day span. "3 months" rather than "3 years" works much better for me; otherwise, I'd put everything off for, oh, 2.5-2.75 years. ;)

Heh. Unclear to me if "10 things in 3 months" or "1 thing in 3 days" is a better scale for me. ;) I suppose it'd be hard to, say, publish 5 episodes of a podcast in 3 days. Although "alphabetize the paperbacks" seems--

well, okay, alphabetizing -our- paperbacks would be easy to do in 3 days. Maybe not -your- collection, hahaha. :)

The theory is that it's a longer term project, thus at least a year, but if you go for just one year you may have trouble with the seasonal tasks.

I can imagine procrastinating a lot. We will see!

I am in, sir. I'm very close to a complete list. Let me nkow where you're tracking yours, yeah?

I was sort of thinking about a community. I dunno.

Hm.

http://oneohone.innocence.com/ is a start. Want an author login? No reason why two people couldn't use it.

Possible, but since one of mine is to keep my own blog updated, this seems like a shoo-in! I'll add yours onto mine once it's loaded, hopefully this weekend ...
