10 Things to Do Before I Turn 30

Rate: 2 Flag

Two months from today, I will turn thirty, so naturally I’m trying to decide what to accomplish with the desperate dying gasps of my youth. This is difficult for a variety of reasons: two months isn’t actually very much time, as it turns out (remember September 28? done anything earth-shattering since then?), and also I can never seem to muster even the tiniest shit to give about goals and deadlines and milestones or any of that bullsmack.

Thanks to Google, it’s not hard to find the lists other people have assembled, mostly as advice given to 19-year-olds or graduating college seniors. I’ve cobbled together a few gems from my internet searching and assembled the following check list. Which I then modified. And then I checked everything off. Pass me that flight suit yo, because MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

Erin! Nix on the housedress until you're at least 60...it'll make you fell like putting pink spongy curlers in your hair!!!


stop the advance of the 451s
"bucket list" is a pretty good movie, check it out
Isn't eating baby back ribs, like, cannibalism?
darlin', don't worry. if you play your cards right (which you seem to be quite adept at) the older you get, the crazier you can be and get away with it. and it's fun. want to talk out loud to yourself at grocery stores, street corners or answer people who are asking questions of someone on the other end of their cell phone conversation ? go ahead. as long as you have good hygiene, older folks are quirky as opposed to being rude or truely nuts or dangerous in most instances. want to have a pda with a friend in public? the response is "ah, how sweet. still in love at their age!". and hell, you can start giving out unasked for advice and the kids (unless they're your own) will only roll their eyes instead of telling you to shut up or butt out which your contemporaries will still do. wheeeee! it's a free-for-all that is well deserved. it only takes realizing that no one is judging you or even really noticing what you do anymore like you thought they were when you were the dopey center of the universe for all those previous years. again-wheeee!
