Here's a quote for this moment - found at Way Cool Quotes: "When all is said and done, a lot more is said than done." which pretty much sums me up, doesn't it? Just a lot of bla bla bla... which brings me to the following list someone forwarded to me a while back.
The idea is to forward the list (with an x by the stuff you've done) to your friends and somehow alleviate for a few short moments the mind numbing boredom of your current life by reminding you that once - (hopefully) - you did actually do something. As a bonus, you might even get to find out more about people you thought you knew but really didn't, or people you wish you know but don't, while at the same time making you seem (hopefully) more interesting than you actually are.
Wanna play? Copy the following list and paste it into an email. Place an X by all the things you've done (This is for your entire life!) and remove the X from the ones you have not. Now, take a moment to enjoy the fact that you are so amazingly interesting, and it to your friends.
Have you ever:
- Gone on a blind date - X
- Skipped school - X
- Watched someone die
- Been to Canada
- Been to Mexico - X
- Been to Florida - X
- Been on a plane - X
- Been lost - X

- Gone to Washington , DC - X
- Swam in the ocean - X
- Cried yourself to sleep - X

- Paid for a meal with coins only? - X
- Done something you told yourself you wouldn't? - X

- Been kissed under the mistletoe - X
- Watched the sunrise with someone you care about - X
- Blown bubbles - X
- Gone ice-skating
- Been skinny dipping outdoors - X
- Gone to the movies - X
Ok... so that's the list, it's really not that great is it? I mean, who hasn't gone to the movies or watched the sunrise with someone or cried themselves to sleep or blown bubbles? And so what if you've never been to Canada, gone ice-skating, or sang Karaoke? How about a REAL list - something REALLY interesting!! Like, for example...
For example, did you ever:
- Go joy riding in a stolen police car
- Win big in the Publisher's Clearing House Sweepstakes
- Burn the neighbor's house down by accident
- Go skinny dipping in the Arctic Ocean
- Find a million dollars in the pockets of an old coat bought at a flea market for 25 cents
- Hold up a bank with a toy gun
- Dig a hole to China
- Run naked through a shopping mall on Christmas Eve
So, really, what have you actually done that's interesting, unusual, amazing, or just plain funny? Anything? Anything at all??
