I just love my face…well…all of me really.
I’m going to be 30 in 21 days. CRUD!
Ok. So…the turning 30 part doesn’t freak me out…its trying to finish this damn list! I started this project pretty late in the pre-30 game, and have fallen behind! What a slacker. Here’s where we’re at so far…
1. Blog at least once a week! (right here on this tumblr page) SLACKED big time! Back at it though.

30. Participate in something GREAT. My life is pretty GREAT, and I’m an active participant in that EVERY SINGLE DAY.
I’m not doing terribly on this list…but there are certainly a couple of things (like learn to play a FRIGGIN song on the piano) that I must do! In the meantime…I’m waiting for the breakdown. You know…that moment when you realize you’re about to turn 30, unmarried, not even close to being married, and all your friends are with child, engaged or …you know it, MARRIED.
How did you deal with 30? Let me tell you how I’m going to…
With UNLIMITED cocktails on the beach of the Dominican Republic.
Bloop.
