Everybody, even if it's not written down, has a list of things they want to do in life.
Like touch a dolphin.
Or be on a first-name, numbers-exchanged basis with a really famous person.
Or take that one cliche tourist picture by that famous landmark or monument.
Or eat a Pronto Pup at the State Fair.
You know, those necessary experiences that you must have before you die.
Today, after making (*ahem* several...) wrong turns on the way back to the Man Cave from Neptune Beach, I stopped Tony's car on the side of the road and started yelling out the sunroof. A bright red streak of smoke rose on the southern horizon... FREAKING SPACE SHUTTLE LAUNCH.
Ever since one summer night 11 years ago, when my dad woke me up at 4am to watch the Shuttle dock with the MIR Space Station directly over Kansas, seeing a launch has been on my list.
Check.
