Flying Trapeze

I've been keeping a list of Things I Want to Try on a piece of notebook paper since I was 21-years-old. It sits in a shoe box, tucked away with some old photographs of my father in Vietnam, a couple of cats-eye marbles, and a fossil I found when I was ten. When the opportunity presents itself, I cross the things I've tried off one-by-one, with the intention of doing them all. I'm happy to say I've recently crossed another off--trapeze lessons.
I've always been about experiencing what life has to offer. Sometimes, it gets me into trouble. Other times, I'm made fun of and told to act my age. But I never want to look back on my life and think, "Gee, I wish I would have tried that!"
So, here goes. My bucket list, in no particular order.

1. Trapeze lessons
