Caraccioli Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 This is a game (I guess it's a game) where you list something you're working towards explained in two parts. Part first - Near: a small thing you're working on right now. Part second - Far: the overarching end you're trying to get to by completing the "near" part. I guess you should only list one thing, although I haven't a reason to make that a specification of the game, so feel free to ignore it if it makes you happy. I'll start: Near: Building a shelf on wheels to fit in one of the doorways to create a "pantry-effect" and also add a hidden door to the room. (No, I don't know why I'm adding a hidden door to my kitchen - someone suggested it and I just sort of liked the idea.) Far: To create a Delorean-themed kitchen in my house And you? "You're supposed to be dead!" "Am I not?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-Handed Jill Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Okay, I'll bite. Out of the legion of sewing projects in my queue: Near: Finish number two fusilier coat. Far: Finish all four of these coats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jessie k. Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 near: finish my German homework before the weekend far: someday I will live in England and make a living off of one of my obsessions, like maybe archaeology from the Old English time period.

(fingers crossed!) jess, have you read Timeline by Crichton? It's well worth the time. Near: Finish statistics with an A. Far: Get my Doctorate in Psychology and be an overeducated know-nothing.

jessie k. Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Yeah, I've read Timeline. I really liked it...much better than the movie, though that was entertaining on an entirely different level. (I just liked the trebuchets.) Near: Staring absently out the window. Far: Evidently to achieve some greater understanding of the universe, or peace of mind, or something...I'll let you know when I find it.
