(Prelude: The year of the Podcast. I was listening to the Nerdist podcast and Chris Hardwick said that he makes a list of all the things he's done in the past year (good & bad) and it's a good way to make you reflect and realize all the things you've done in the past year and it makes you feel good seeing all the stuff compiled in one place. The list is mostly in chronolgical order. When I made this list I wasn't intending on sharing it with anyone, but now I think it's a good way to encourage other people to do it. I did leave some out of this blog post mostly because it involved other people and didn't want to overshare something that isn't mine to overshare. 1/1/17)
