The 40 x 40

This is My List, and it is full of things that make me want more of life. It’s how I’m trying to find my kind of awesome. I’m calling it a 40×40 list, even though completing it by the time I turn 40 is inconceivable. But that’s OK, because I’ll use the incomplete things as a starting point of a 50×50 list. In life, as in video games, you need a final boss.

This is my Ganondorf.
