The quote, "Do one thing every day that scares you" was first presented to me in the popular 1998 song, "Everyone's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)" by Baz Luhrmann. While true origin of the quote is debatable, I've found that this saying has stuck with me as a personal motto (most days) and I frequently pass it on as advice to other people. This blog is my attempt to capture and chronicle "the one thing every day that scares me" in 2011.

Day 287 - $9.50
Upon leaving work, I tuned in to my favorite AM radio station, only to hear that my commute home would be a minimum of an hour and a half thanks to the Korean President's motorcade shutting down one of the main highways in my route home. As I calculated, I was not willing to spend the next 2+ hours in my car, so I made an impromptu trip to the nearest mall and spent those two hours in a movie theater instead of sucking fumes on the highway. It was the best $9.50 I've ever spent to avoid a headache.
