It’s Friday and we made it through the week and there’s a long weekend ahead. This makes me so happy. Also, it’s birthday weekend and there are a few different people in town. I have tons of drafts about Iceland and baseball and all kinds of other stuff, but I want to keep it easy today so we’ll stick with a countdown.


5 Things Happening this Weekend:


1. I turn 30 years old on Sunday. I love birthday weekend.

2. My Mom is in town with her friend, Rachel, and her kids who are celebrating their birthday. This means I get to hang with my mom and do some fun kid stuff around NYC.

3. Celebrate Justin’s birthday on Memorial Day, although I let him open his present already.

4. Drinks with our Florida friends who are visiting the city for the weekend.

5. Eat dessert daily for the next 4 days – I love birthday weekend.


4 Things I Want:


1. Another Minnesota t-shirt
2. Something bright & shiny to hang on the wall
