all me. all the time. sometimes in stereo.
So happy to have landed here. I like you already.
I quickly scanned your blog & see sarcasm as one of your favorite tags. Helllllo new friend! I’ll spend some time with you this afternoon!
Holy CRAP. I can’t believe I didn’t realize that you like to dance! I would have filmed us dancing together at EBWW for my next #bloggersdance video (premiering May 7th). You have to get in on this! I’ll email you details. Let’s dance!!!
PS – I LOVE your list!
Wait a minute…you’ve ridden a mechanical bull? Was that before or after the nose piercing?
Many, many times. Pre-piercing. It was my crazy thing in my “early” thirties! I’d do it again in a heartbeat.
Hmm. Just where did you touch a penguin? On the head? On the wing? On the cummerbund?
Love this eclectic list – it’s so “you.” Suggestion: Maybe if you combine some of the goals, you can rip through them faster (aka in time)… like “Take a yacht though the Caribbean” and “Eat more fish” or “Quit my day job” and “Understand the benefits & joy of coupons.”
I touched him everywhere! I mean when is that opportunity going to present itself again? You could say I took advantage of him (bah dum dum).
And yes, if I was wise I would consolidate however…
