Some may call me crazy, but in addition to my 30 Before 30 list I’m making a list of 52 things to do in 2010. Don’t yell at me just yet…there’s no craziness and I’m combining lists.

What can I say? I’m loving the lists right now. It’s a fun, quick, and practical way to remember things I’ve wanted to do but haven’t gotten around to it or forgot about.

Here’s to 2010!
