The Dating Race

I hope anyone reading this blog has had a chance to look at The Dating Race. If you haven't, go to thedatingrace.blogspot.com and check it out. It's what's kept me most busy this month (I've had about 3 dates for every 4 days so far). It's been a really fun month, and I'm closer to winning than I expected (I still think Shayla's gonna win in the end, but I'm trying to catch her). This is an especially good week to read the blog, as there will be a vote at the end of the month for which girl you think I should take on the group date (between me, Eric, and Shayla). Anyways, I hope you're all doing as well as I am.

My Bucket List

Instead of posting my New Year's Resolutions (I have them), I thought it would be more fun to post my bucket list. These are things I would like to do at some point in my life. Some of them have already been accomplished. But it seems that when I experience one thrill (like skydiving) I feel like I need to have another, bigger thrill (like flying a wingsuit).

Reminiscent to any gamers?

Before they take down these Christmas lights I had to take a picture of my neighbor's house. Every time I drive by at night, I'm reminded of a video game that used to be way popular called Gauntlet Legends. We never owned the game, but enough other people did that we played it a lot.
