Friday 7 Quick Takes (vol 106)


1.

This is the first full house week we’ve had at Totes Awesome Channel in a while! We are talking about fall.

I did something impulsive and a little crazy. I registered for World Domination Summit with Anita. I honestly feel like I have no business going as it’s kind of a conference for brilliant people with brilliant projects. It’s too late to turn back now and it’s an opportunity to surround myself with ridiculously driven people and look at them with wide-eyed awe. And eat at Voodoo Donuts in Portland.

3.

I love that WDS is in Oregon; I’ve never been to Oregon! I’m crawling my way through this 50 states goal. Washington last week makes 17 states.

4.

The same day I bought a ticket to WDS, I bought tickets to another possibly life altering event! Alamo Drafthouse is featuring 100 minutes of Ryan Gosling movie clips.

5.

I have less than a week left of giving Alan a gift a day for 28 days for his 28th birthday. My favorite gift from this last week is a jar of bacon jam I got from Seattle’s Skillet. You can buy your own bacon jam here!

6.

It’s Alan’s birthday tomorrow! He has 6 more days of gifts because I started this project 5 days late. He’s going to the UT game with his friends and I’m going to go car shopping. It kills the sentimental side of me a little knowing that on the actual day of his birthday we won’t be spending that much time together. However, it’s his birthday and I won’t step between him and a free football ticket!
