In the last few days leading up to my birthday, I started thinking about fun things I could post on my blog to celebrate. I decided I was going to post a “forty list” each day for a week (or something like that), and I even started making the lists. Then I went to Disneyland, and I just wasn’t feeling it, so I didn’t do it, and now I have these weird lists in my draft folder that I need to either post or delete.
(Tell me, do you take a shot every time I mention my 40th birthday?)
Anyway, here is my first list. I thought this one was timely after yesterday’s post. It’s like my anti-resume. Please know that I’m not trying to be mean to myself. There are some things I’m just not great at, and that’s okay. I figure I’m doing the world a favor by providing balance.

I just love that your blog funk passed and you are back in force. I love that your hobby is to online journal - it's not weird at all (I can say that because I obviously can't give it up either) it's my all time fave and the only one I compulsively check.
