As hard to believe as it may be, I've been blathering on here for 299 separate posts, so of course I'm feeling some pressure to produce something more than my ordinary ranting and raving for this number 300. Since I'm a complete dork, I want to put something up here that plays off that number, but can you imagine reading a silly list of 300 facts about me? Yeah, I do believe that would be the perfect move if I'd like to hear nothing but a constant cricket-chirping soundtrack around here...
How about a list of ten bullets, with each entry representing groups of thirty things that are remarkable, noteworthy, or somehow related to something or other about me? Okay, are you following me? I'm not sure how well this idea is going to fly, so bear with me here. (Or alternatively, you could click to your next blog, as this may well turn out to be a wash...)
Here we go, apparently... 300 Things About Me, Conveniently Packaged in Ten Groups of Thirty to Commemorate the 300th Time I've Typed Silly Words into This Space. (whew.)
* I carry around, on a daily basis, 30 extra pounds, mostly accumulated on my two-tiered post-pregnancy belly. I would like, very much, to send those 30 things far, far away.
* I enjoyed exactly 30 books that I read last year, leaving only 1 on the man-that-was-a-major-waste-of-my-precious-reading-time list.
* I have plucked 30 gray hairs from my head of always-messy-hair since my public shaming of numero uno a year and a half ago. (This is, quite possibly, an approximation.)
* I could sleep for 30 consecutive hours if given the chance... as if there could ever be that long of an even semi-quiet environment in our teeny tiny home.
* At a young age, I once attempted to count the freckles that adorn the bridge of my nose and my forehead in the spring and summer months. I gave up at 30, because I'm not equipped with that much fortitude. (Sure, I could have made that one up, but it's most likely pretty darn close.)
*Yeah, this list is turning out to be a whole lot freaking harder than I initially imagined... so let me throw down those last 150 items in one-- that is the number of minutes that I spent crying my eyes out while watching the Benjamin Button movie the other day. (It's 159 minutes long, so I figure that number is pretty spot on, actually.)
Count em up, folks. 300 is number of the day!
