Day 236: August 24, 2010

The original list: http://juststuffbytricia.blogspot.com/2009/12/2010.html



Wow! I haven’t updated in like a month! And BOO! I don’t really think I’ve done all that much either… >.<

There just has really been a lot going on in my life that gets in the way with fun stuff so…yeah I know, “excuses, excuses” but it’s true I promise. Oh well, let’s see where I am…

1. Be intentional about my quiet time

So….um….yeah still being lazy. I don’t even know why, because when I do this I can TOTALLY tell a difference. Stupid life…

2. Pay off all my bills

I did pay off 3 more! …. But then promptly charged something on 2 of them. *sigh* But they are small so I can take care of it soon. And I promise I’ll cut them up after that! O:-)

4. Read 20 books (10/20)

I’m trying to remember if there was one in between or not, but I know I’ve read at least 2 books since last month. My friend gave me the Pretty Little Liars set for my daughter to read and curiousity got me to check them out first. I finished the first two, Pretty Little Liars and Flawless and am currently midway through number 3, Perfect.

7. Buy a new CD the day it’s released

This was already checked off but I did get Goose the new Jonas LA CD for her birthday when it came out. It counts, even if it wasn’t for me…right?!

8. Tone up and be bikini ready by May

Ugh….not as much as I’d like. If I had the money, I think I’d seriously consider lypo.

14. Meet someone famous

Again….already checked off, but just wanted to throw out there that I won M&G for the Goo Goo Dolls this weekend! I GET TO MEET JOHNNY RZEZNIK!!!! *excuse my teenie moment* ;-)

22. Do a cartwheel often and for no reason

I’m gonna go ahead and mark this one off….I’ve been randomly doing them! :-)

23. Finish a 5K in 25 minutes or less

Ugh….haven’t even done one since March! But I have been running. I joined a soccer team!

25. Clean out the office

Well the room is pretty clean, it’s the “out” part I’m not satisfied with. I got to a point and still work on this one occasionally…and am actually really close but not quite there. I’ve been cleaning out some other rooms though too and now have a HELL of a garage sale pile. I look at it and whine….”I hate garage sales, maybe I’ll just drop it at CCA”…but I could really use the $$. I’m just already dreading it. :-/
42. Fill my charm bracelet (6/12)

I got a new charm….a Margarita Glass! Sooo me! :-) Now I have all my favorites…Shoes, sunglasses and margaritas…what else could a girl need!?

54. Go to a Cowboys game at the new stadium

DONE! A friend and I got tickets to the pre-season game against the Raiders for $35! We had AWESOME seats in the end zone! The guy next to me was a Raiders fan and SUPER ANNOYING, so I was REALLY glad he left before the 4th quarter when the Raiders scored 2 touchdowns to beat us, but it was still fun. I definitely need to do this again! :-)

60. Buy a pair of designer shoes

Still looking…and trying them on! But the Louboutin boutique opens in HVP NEXT MONTH!!!! I can’t wait! =D

61. Go see a movie in the theater once a month (11/12)

Almost time to mark this one off! I’ve seen two movies in the past month, Inception and Charlie St. Cloud. Both were really good! :-)

62. Try each type of cheesecake on the menu at Cheesecake Factory (11/32)

Tried a few more! Went recently and had a girls stress reliever and totally pigged on comfort foods. We tried Carrot Cake, Pineapple Upside Down, and Chocolate Tuxedo Cream….MMMMMMM xP

But dang I wish that place wasn’t so expensive! I still have a lot left to try in the next 3 ½ months :-/

65. Sing karaoke

OMG I sang karaoke!!! I went to McKinney Avenue Tavern a couple of weeks ago with Janice and we didn’t even know they were going to do karaoke. But we worked up the nerve to get up there and put our name in for “Don’t Stop Believing.” Unfortunately someone else had too and they were called first, so we did “Hit Me With Your Best Shot” instead! I was scared to death, but just got up there and did it…partially because it was on this list so I couldn’t chicken out. We were cheered and I think comparatively, we didn’t suck too bad! Hahaha :P

72. Go to the circus

Oh yay! I did this too! I got a presale notice from AAC and was able to get decent tickets for a great price. Bing…Bang…ZOOM! :-)

79. Call my parents, and sisters, once a week

I think I’m doing pretty good on this. Although I am not always the initiator, I have been talking to them pretty regular. We even had dinner with my dad this past weekend.

80. See at least 5 concerts (6/5)

Overachiever! Hahaha we saw The Maine at Six Flags on July 24th, and scored some decent seats for Aerosmith for $10 at Superpages on August 3rd! Plus….I already have my tickets for Goo Goo Dolls and Switchfoot for this weekend…did I mention I GET TO MEET JOHNNY RZEZNIK!?!? And Rooney on the 26th!

83. Finish my Christmas shopping by October

Oh yeah….I still need to make this list! :-/

86. See a shooting star and make a wish

So the Perseid meteor shower was the same night as the Cowboys game. I had JUST gotten home and called my friend to let them know I’d made it and walked outside to look up. The conversation: “I’m home.” “Good, I’m glad you made it.” “Yeah, I’m walking outside to see if….Oh WAIT! There’s one RIGHT NOW!!!” hahaha

But I can’t tell you what I wished for….or it won’t come true! :P

91. Listen to my entire iTunes library (currently 4504 songs)

Wow! I know this was already marked off too, but of course I’ve added new songs! I’m up to 4504, which is 385 more than I had back in June when I marked it off. And 1566 more than I had at the first of the year. I do however still have 59 songs to listen to now.

So wow – maybe I’ve done more than I thought I had! I’ll try and update sooner.
