What activity do you know you have to do on a specific date, that is furthest away in your future?

I’m getting married in 17 months. If i can get my ring back from idiot cat, that is. We chose to have a long engagement so we can have time to plan and save for our special day.

I have a wedding to go to in May, a graduation in June, and a baby to pop out in August. I suppose I don’t have a solid date for the last one, so it might not count.

Not counting birthdays, the farthest thing I have scheduled in my personal life is Key West in April. Work, I’ve got stuff scheduled through May of 2012 already, although much of it is of the weekly/monthly meeting variety, and lord knows plenty of it will change.
