It has been proven (somewhere, sometime, I'm sure) that making lists improves your complexion, brightens your physical appearance, helps your love life, satisfies your organizational cravings, and brings good luck. Here we go.
Things to do before I die:
-See Europe
-Backpack the John Muir Trail again, this time, with my kids
-Become a Registered Nurse
-Bike the Pacific Coast
-Spend a week eating pizza in bed and watching T.V. with my husband, like we did in the old days
-Write some really important, exciting, landmark novel and get published
-Have a really important, exciting, landmark idea, sell it, make a lot of money.
-Serve a mission with my love
I like reading these more than writing them! I tag everyone. My hand is reaching out, and literally tagging you on the shoulder. You should have probably run a little faster.

Bit Jealous
This is what I freakin' did (you can sense the anger in my voice, right?). It's a young adult fiction novel and it's written by my friend and old roomate AnnDee Ellis. She's kind of a jerk for writing it because it's actually really good. I'm almost done with it (I only bought it last night, ok??). Almost the whole book is an 8th grader's inner dialogue and it's published in the most unique format I've ever seen (you will see if [when] you buy it).
AnnDee is amazing and I went to her release party last night.
"AnnDee, you look so beau--"
"Wholesome?", crinkling her nose.
I laughed but seriously, she looked cute, and radiant, and many other things from Charlotte's Web.
So I've got a friend with a published novel. And a friend with a #1 selling album. Why doesn't one of my friends just become a famous photographer and just get this agony overwith? I guess it's not really THAT bad... (fake nervous laugh).
I really do have the best life. And it's not even half over (hopefully). Watch for Sarah the cruise ship singer making her debut at age 58!!
