1000 Things To Do Before You Die: #44 - #46

#44: Attend a Houston Dynamo game.

Accomplished: Friday, August 3, 2012.

Half-credit: Alexi Lalas (sings).

Extra-credit: Penalty kicks awarded in rapid succession for time wasting and hand ball. (USA USA USA.)



#45: Visit Shakespeare's Pub in Houston, Texas.

Accomplished: A few times.  Latest on Friday/Saturday, August 3/4, 2012.

Half-credit: Hot mic.

Extra-credit: Dr. Black (your English teacher from high school) is still the bar owner.



#46: Develop as a professional by attending training provided by your employer.

Accomplished: Monday, August 6, 2012.

Half-credit: No sarcasm.

Extra-credit: You were informed ahead of time that the June training was cancelled ergo you didn't have to suddenly switch summer plans.  Plus the money saved on not returning to Texas from Wisconsin (remember: in this scenario you're aware training has been cancelled) could actually be saved.

(The silver lining from the Amtrak trip I took to attend the training that had been cancelled will be a future Thing.)




[Also: Sunday's accomplishment can be replaced by #41, #42, or #43.  Your choice.  I had one too many during that time period if my idea is to only accomplish one Thing per day.]
