Things You Can Do In Thirty Days

A while back I wrote about a Ted presentation I saw discussing how you could do something for 30 days and make or break a habit. I was intrigued. My unstated (except verbally to Wonder Boy) goal was to blog for 30 days straight. And I did it! Not only that, I blogged every day during the month of August (which means I blogged for 42 days straight, if you’re counting). Because I blogged each day in August, I get to cross “Update blog daily for at least a month stretch” off my 100 list.

I wasn’t the only one inspired by the 30 Days talk. Maggie Mason at MightyGirl had the inspired idea to do something fun for 30 days in a row. I think this is such a fun idea that I am going to steal it. So today launches day 1 of 30 days of fun.

For my first day, I enjoyed a drinks out with Pop and Wonder Boy. It was a fabulous end to a day that sort of did me in. I needed the fun!

This potato pancake was really Pop’s. I ordered a soft pretzel with a bucket of liquid cheese. When it came, I was too busy drinking the cheese to take pictures!

He didn’t like this when I pointed this out, but I’ve known Pop for 17 years now, which makes him one of my oldest friends. It’s so nice to hang out with someone who you’ve known for that long. I don’t know why, maybe because it’s familiar, but it was a wonderful way to spend an evening.
