So, I was talking to a friend recently and we were talking about the various things on our bucket list and besides things like, visiting all the major league baseball parks, and visiting my pen pal (who I’ve been writing to for YEARS) in Australia, most of the stuff on my list would be…well nerd related.

And I dealt with this revelation the same way I do pretty much every thing else that comes up like this.

I decided to write about it.

So here I am, making a list of things I hope to do before I die, on my nerd bucket list.

Its a post but its also going to be a page under the “About Sara” section, because I’ll be updating it, based on what I do or if I decide I want to do more!

 Check it out!
