Have You Ever...

Thanks for this, Lisa! It saves everyone from having to read about the miracle of spam (the other pink "meat"). The same rules apply for my listing:

Here's a list of some things one might have done in his or her lifetime: the ones I've done are highlighted and I put little parenthetical notes beside some of them. It's kind of long but it's interesting--and we all know it's fun to learn new things about each other! If you decide to post this on your blog, leave a comment with a link to it!
