Today's my birthday. I'm 29.
I've made a list of 30 things to do before I turn 30, just to help me get the most out of this new year in my life. Kind of like new year's resolutions, for my new year. Just a list of completely do-able things to keep me motivated. I figure if I share it with you all, I'll actually have to be accountable for it. I'll keep you posted on my progress throughout the year. So with that, here's "The List."

P.S. Sorry for all the self-absorbed blog posts as of late. Next week, I'll get over myself, and get back to normal. ;)
