(i'll still see the movie, tho.)<br /><a href="http://thelovely101.blogspot.com/2009/07/list.html">#37</a> sort-of happened on accident. a couple friends and i decided to go to Tulalip to play bingo one night (which, yes, i know is gambling, too) but we ended up in the wrong building, and were too lazy to walk to the other building, so we stayed and played the slots. with gas and food...i broke even. 'twas a good night.<br />technically, <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">i</span> didnt do <a href="http://thelovely101.blogspot.com/2009/07/list.html">#43</a>, but my dear father painted our house this past year. and it looks great!<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">finally</span> renewed my license, <a href="http://thelovely101.blogspot.com/2009/07/list.html">#77</a>, but now i must renew it again, as i just got married! :-)<br /><a href="http://thelovely101.blogspot.com/2009/07/list.html">#85</a> has been crossed off several times, as we have ventured to eastern washington, portland, and the coast several times.<br />we had a fantastic trip to Disney World, which also included The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. One of my most favoritest trips ever! technically, that was already crossed off, since we went to Disneyland again...but, still, Disney World is a whole new experience. this also counts for <a href="http://thelovely101.blogspot.com/2009/07/list.html">#12</a>, as we rode several roller coasters. altho, i fully plan on riding faster and larger roller coasters in the future - like a nice trip to Six Flags - but for now, this is worth a cross-off.<br />my lovely husband got me a new iphone for christmas, so <a href="http://thelovely101.blogspot.com/2009/07/list.html">#96</a> is now crossed off, as i am now moving my music collection over to said iphone.<br /><br />here's to the next four months!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6jWuY4rYsXZb31A0sbPnif1391x4mRgMdcKM-iulksGcb_as9byuh9nKOVrzwNlAL9m_jeBLcJLM_IPv18TmHl66wrveoU_Zcd9oey1al6iu9xPkfW_7zH3Lxs85jDz-rEHhnkIgVV48/s1600/ToriMattAnimalKingdom.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6jWuY4rYsXZb31A0sbPnif1391x4mRgMdcKM-iulksGcb_as9byuh9nKOVrzwNlAL9m_jeBLcJLM_IPv18TmHl66wrveoU_Zcd9oey1al6iu9xPkfW_7zH3Lxs85jDz-rEHhnkIgVV48/s400/ToriMattAnimalKingdom.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5693159323303220418" border="0" /></a>torinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15815647328449592979noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542110011336900085.post-38717919972476790542010-01-03T15:57:00.000-08:002010-01-03T16:00:53.648-08:00side note on #90i <a href="http://thelovely101.blogspot.com/2009/08/disneyworld90.html">mentioned before </a>that i was planning a trip to Disneyworld for <a href="http://thelovely101.blogspot.com/2009/07/list.html">90</a>.<br />that plan has since canceled because we have made a bigger plan to go back to europe.<br />buuuuuut....just yesterday we decided to continue my Disney-birthday tradition (that was just started last year, but i fully intend to have it last) and go to Disneyland...which is much cheaper.<br />!<br /><br />yay!torinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15815647328449592979noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542110011336900085.post-14838618979163658832010-01-03T15:55:00.000-08:002010-01-03T16:00:22.210-08:00#17sad, i know -
