I don't really make birthday lists; sometimes I make year lists. I'm turning 31 in 2 days! No time to make a new goal. :D
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time I've made a birthday list. Which is surprising, considering how into birthdays I am.
DeleteHappy almost birthday! Did you decide on museums, or beach? Or both?
Eh, neither. Work is crazy these days so I'm going to be at work for most of the day, but I did make lunch and dinner plans with friends. Museums this weekend, though, for sure--a Jasper Johns exhibit is opening at the Phillips!
DeleteIt strikes me that although the blog editor writes in Times New, it does not publish as such. This factual error is in need of correction, however I've no idea how to change the font on this thing. This has been a public font service announcement brought to you by me. We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.
ReplyDeleteAre we talking about the rainbow party I think we're talking about?
ReplyDeleteI can't very well know what you're thinking if I don't know who you are, anonymous. BUT, if you have any inkling, I'm sure you're right.
DeleteBest of luck in reaching your goals! I am an aspiring strongman who hopes to Deadlift 750lbs, Squat 800lbs, Bench Press 405lbs, and Overhead Press 300lbs before I turn 30. I'll be 25 in October and Deadlift 425, Squat 325, Bench 275, and Overhead Press 195 currently. I also hope to obtain a Master's Degree in Food Politics/Food Science and compete in Strongman contests at least a few times per year. Paying off my current student debt wouldn't be a bad idea as well ;)
ReplyDeleteWow! It looks like you're already well on your way to attaining your goals - plus you have five more years to get there! Good for you! :)
DeleteI hope you'll document all these things on here - they sound fun!
ReplyDeleteI will! Check back later this week to see the results of one of the goals. :)
DeleteJust about the only thing I'm not behind is the bangs thing. Might think that one through before grabbing the scissors ;)
ReplyDeleteWait, wait, have you MET my forehead? It's so large! It needs a fringe to hide behind! I'm torn, though - bangs are a hassle, what with their constant need to be straightened and fussed with.
DeleteI want to help with one of your 30s:) Check out mine - www.angies30before30.com
ReplyDeleteWe can do the fake wedding shoot.... and are more than happy to take rainbow macaroons as payment :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome!
