99 Memorable Experiences

So I know my posting has been few and far between lately and I am sorry about that.  It seems even adding just a small part time job has thrown me way off.  But I saw this list of 99 memorable things on the Craving Cupcakes Blog and really liked it.  Plus it is really easy to fill out and it made me think about all the things I haven't had a chance to do on it.  It 's a little sad that I was actually in Venice but didn't take a gondola ride and for the life of me I have NO idea why I didn't do it (all I can think is that it was when I was in high school and no one I was with wanted to go ... lame).  But it makes me think all the same about what I haven't had a chance to do yet.
