Another list of things to do!

I've decided that I need to come up with new goals. The 50 things before I die list is getting kind of old. I have accomplished a good chunk of those goals (considering they are supposed to be life-long...) and I've also decided that some of those goals are kind of stupid.

Anyway, I've decided to make a list of 50 shorter-term goals. I've made them all the type of goal that I are measurable and can cross off a list, though I was really tempted to write out stuff like attitude goals. I'm making my two-year wedding anniversary the cut-off date. Anyone have any feedback on how much they think I'll accomplish? Or feedback on how to go about doing anything on the list? Here's what I have to do by 07/14/09:

1. Volunteer to do a clean up activity with an environmental group (at a park, nature trail, beach, etc.)
