I'm getting there! another one checked off!

1. skydive
i want to feel the rush of free falling for a time. i want to feel gravity pull me down. i want to see the world from that view. i want a few minutes where nothing else matters, except the parachute opening. and no, indoor skydiving does not count. i'd love to have someone to share this with me. someone i care about. someone who is willing to jump out of a plane, just because they know how much i desire doing this.


2. ride a motorcycle (DONE! 1/1/09)
i dont want to drive one. i want to wrap my arms around the driver, and hold on for dear life. i want to tuck my head behind his shoulder, to keep the wind out of my face long enuf to breathe. i want to experience the feeling of taking a turn with my body at an angle.



3. go fishing (DONE! 6/7/09)
this seems self explainatory. never done it, never tried. want to learn how. would like to catch a fish in the process too.


4. climb a fourteener (DONE! 9/11/10)
i live in a state full of them. its sad that i have no one to do this with.



5. visit Pompeii and Australia
Pompeii has intrigued me ever since it was part of the unit i taught my son when i homeschooled him. i'd like to travel, and see it in person. Australia just seems like the coolest place to visit. Incredible countryside. I want to explore it, not just see it. It would be fun to visit these places, and others, with someone who loves adventure, who enjoys traveling, and who can handle changes.


6. kiss a total stranger
just to walk up to somone, not say a word, and start kissing them. just to see if they kiss back, or pull away.


7. kiss and dance in the rain
this requires passion. i'd rather never do this, than to do it with the wrong person. granted, i dont know how to dance. but its the idea of it that counts.


8. fire a gun(DONE! 5/30/09)


9. go to a strip club
strictly just to say i've been to one



10. ride in a helicopter
do i need a reason for this one? it just looks SO cool! (and sexy for some reason)


11. fly on a private jet
Partly because i want to feel rich for a short amount of time, and partly because i've heard its so much easier to fly that way... not strapped to a row of cattle... a little luxury seating can go a long way i think... plus, joining the mile high club must be easier as well ;)



12. go skinny dipping (done! 9/10)
preferably somewhere a bit more public than my bathtub or a secluded hot tub, although i'm not aching to get 'caught' or seen... its the thrill of 'i might get caught' that makes it appealing.


13. visit Seattle
the fish market, the atmosphere, just the entire experience. i once had a friend that talked alot about Seattle, and ever since, i've wanted to see it and experience it myself. would really like to experience it with someone i care about, as it seems like it could be a very romantic city. (and not just because of the movie)


14. go to a drive-in movie
i used to be obsessed with the 50's, which makes it even more sad and pathetic that i never got to go to a drive-in, but when drive-ins were still around here and there, i was growing up in a family that wasn't really into going to the movies, so i missed out. now, there are none around me. i believe the closest one is an hour away... but i've never had anyone take me, and it seems like a silly thing to do by myself.



There are other 'fun' things i'd like to do (and places i'd like to do them), but all require raw, animal type instincts along with great passion for another person. Wont list those, or it would ruin the spontaneity of it
