2008 Überlist
Last year I was ridiculously lax with my Überlist accomplishments. But that’s okay — the Überlist is simply a list of aspirations, not resolutions. For me, this is a year of high expectations and high hopes. Top on the list is travel. Second is writing work. Third is pretty much grow out my hair (making it’s annual appearance!). This list is not yet complete and will be added to throughout the rest of the month.
You can learn more about the Überlist from it’s mastermind, Nikol.

Grow out my hair (no coloring or other chemicals). Holdover from last year, but I’m doing good. I haven’t touched it since October 2007.— It’s getting quite long now, I think I’m over the awkward spell.Eat fresh, and when possible, local— Gone mostly pescetarian.- Quit saying it and actually run a race
Tour de Houston, 70-miler, if you’re tough enough— I did 40 miles in about 3 hours.
