Okay, so when I was in college I started a list. A list of things I wanted to do before July 13, 2075. Which is, obviously, the day I’ll die according to day4death.com.
So, I figured I’d document my progress seeing as how this is my site and I can do pretty much whatever I want. I named it Before I’m Burger, because burgers are served horizontally, which is most likely how I’ll end up, unless of course I get stuck with a javelin into a tree. Dang you Olympic games. Wanted another name but turns out The Buried Life and The Bucket List were already taken.
