A little while ago I started my very own birthday tradition. On my birthday I would make a list of things I just wanted to do. For example eat ice-cream, see a movie, go golfing, or fall madly in love. The number of items on the list would equal the number of years that I had been alive. Here was this year's list.
1- Go back to sleep after waking up √√
2- Drink chocolate milk √
3- Throw around a Frisbee √
4- Long-board somewhere √
5- Drive with my arm out the window √
6- Get a snow cone √
7- Eat at J-Dawgs √
8- Drink Dr Pepper √
9- Laugh really hard at a new joke √
10- Listen to The Format √
11- Speak Russian with someone √
12- Learn a new song on the guitar √
13- Spend time with the family √
14- Kiss Chelsey √
15- Break something √
16- Fix something √
17- Eat peanut butter kiss cookies √
18- Watch 10 favorite YouTube videos √
19- Go shooting √
20- Eat at the Pizza Factory √
21- Do absolutely nothing for 15 minutes √
22- Win something √
23- Open a present √
The day was a success. I started right when I woke up...by going back to sleep and ended 20 minutes before midnight. I said that I started this tradition a while ago, truth is that while ago was the night before my birthday. The idea just came to me so I decided to try it. I loved it. I will keep it going on into my old age when each item on my list will be a different pill that I have to take.

I can't believe you did all those things on your birthday! You must have been going non stop the whole day! It does sound like you had a fun day!
That's awesome! It sounds like a great idea and it's a pretty good list! I'm especially glad you managed to squeeze #14 in there! ;) I'm surprised it only has one check mark by it though....
I didn't want #14 to outweigh the others, so I just put one check on there.
Wish I had been there on your birthday...sounds like an awesome day! I always remember your birthday Damon. It's the day after my mom's, so I'll never forget yours. I thought about you that day!
Hey, I remember when you were like, 2, maybe younger and you were visiting at our house and you would stand in the crib and yell, "Aunt Shawnie". With your cutest little voice. I can almost still hear it...sadly, my mind is going...sure do miss you! Happy Birthday!
