48 Things.

It seems like I haven't had time to breathe in a long time, and I had to let a lot of things go in order to manage my priorities. Blogging, pleasure reading, Twitter, and writing in general all felt the axe. I have some free time tonight, but not enough energy to be creative, so I decided to dig up the 48 things meme that was floating around the DOC in January.
