1. Spanish. I live in San Diego. 'nuff said.
2. Scuba Diving. I love snorkeling in tropical waters. Scuba diving would be even better. I've wanted to do this ever since I was a wee lad.
3. Carpentry. I can fix anything in the house and make some very basic things like shelves, but that's where my skills end.
4. Drawing. Whenever I go on travel I have plans to do some sketching and practicing, but I never do it.
5. Java programming. I'd like to add some live elements to my blog.
6. Drywall repair. OK, so I can fix almost anything in my house. My drywall seams always stand out. Large hole repair is out of the question.
7. Metalworking. Ugh. Me weld. Me have large fire in hand! (Insert Tim Allen grunting noises here.)
8. Gemcutting and rock sculpting. A very good friend of mine turned me on to rockhounding. I found a place around Ocotillo where the quartz is just laying around. I collected some pieces and he showed me how to use the rock saw and polishers. Cool! I need to post some photos of that. Now I'd like to do more with it. Another friend was in the shop at the same time polishing a geode. Way cool!
9. Get my MBA. I've wanted to do this for a long time, but I can never see how I can swing it. There's just not enough time left to go to school after taking care of my kids and working. It's just not realistic. I might try one class at a time and see how it works this coming year.
10. Indian cooking. I love Southern and Cajun cooking, but Indian food is something I've always wanted to do. I've got a cookbook, I just need to do it.
11. Write Poetry. This is one for retirement, clearly.
12. Sculpture. Dittos.
13. Blog. Wait a minute. I do this one! I can cross one off the list! YAY! :-)

ReplyDeleteAbout the MBA, do one of those study at home programs. My dad did that for something... I forget what though, and I'm considering doing that for my criminal justice degree instead of going back to a regular college for the simple fact that I just straight up never enjoied school that much.
ReplyDeleteI lived in San Diego for about 5 years.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to have some awesome drawing skills, too.
