Lots of updates

8. Be a project lead or tech lead for a major project at work - Just finished a year-long project that I led - The Federated Portal and JEE Upgrade project. It went really well, too.

9. Nominate someone for an Innovation Award - I nominted Ken as part of the FPN project.

16. Go to the dentist twice a year: - just went this week as the second one for 2008

29. Take 3 pictures I believe are worthy of printing up and framing - and then print them and frame them. - I printed a bunch of pictures for Christmas presents, and they look great!

31. Take pictures of an old barn - I did this in Mingo a while ago, I wasn't happy with the pictures, so I didn't cross it off for a while, but it doesn't say take GOOD pictures, so I guess I'm all good.

34. Read 30 books and write reviews in LibraryThing for them - I finished Anne of Windy Poplars, or whatever it's called.

36. Fill at least one Moleskine journal - I don't think this is going to happen, but I AM writing in it a lot more and that DOES make me happy.

39. Participate in NaNoWriMo - even if I don't finish, put forth a real effort. - I didn't just put forth an effort, I actually "won"!

44. Watch 101 movies and keep track of the list - added a bunch more, 2 documentaries and then the Sex and the City movie and Run, Fatboy, Run

52. Finish organizing the office - There's still some stuff in there that we need to give away/sell but it's looking great.

54. Clean out/organize the garage - ok, I didn't actually do this, John did it when I was at work one day as a surprise to me. But it got done, so I figure I can cross it off.

58. Try 30 new recipes - I tried a bunch more that I never wrote about, and now I can't remember what they're called exactly, but I wanted to add them to the list so I'd at least get "credit" for them.

71. Finish rating all my songs in iTunes - I'm crossing this one off because I did the best one could ask for, and now I don't use iTunes anymore, so it doesn't apply, so it's not my fault that it will never get finished.

76. Buy at least one set of fancy, matching bra & panties - I did this a month or so ago from Victoria's Secret.

83. Back up my computer at least once a year - No need anymore! The Drobo does it for me automatically.

92. Buy a good pair of black work shoes - Done. And I love them.

96. Dance with John at least once - we did at Alexis and Scott's Wedding.
