Impossible, until it's done

This is a list of challenges and goals I’ve set for myself, to be updated and documented as I live my life. The concept is supposed to follow what Joel Runyon called an impossible list. I came across the concept from someone’s personal website, but have since forgotten where. If you care about me at all, grill me about updating this list if you can.
