Eat watermelon naked? I've never thought of that. Like your list!
My recent post Wordful Wednesday- Two Devils and an Angel
That's your SUMMER Bucket List?? Holy cow, you are an ambitious woman! Is that for just this summer or what you hope to accomplish over a lifetime of Summer's? 😉
My recent post Im tired of being a grown-up
Nah, it was supposed to be for this summer. Now I have to find a job ASAP and the 1st 35 are all down the drain…
I'd heard of eating Mangoes naked, but I never could figure out when they are properly ripe. Watermelon was a gimme. Thanks for stopping by!
If you could find a way to get paid to eat watermelon naked while lounging in the hammock and drafting your novel, I think you can kill a few birds with one stone. Even if there are no job opportunities for that exact position, it would still look damn impressive on your resume.
Good luck, and remember that even when life (and money) gets in the way, there's always time to make your heart happy–ice cream and Farmer's Markets are a sure way to get there 😉
Ummm……if you're already naked with watermelon, do you even need to worry about white shorts legs. I'm not sure that's what people will be looking at. Just thinking.
Whoa. That is some list! I started doing this one but I only got to like two things: sleep more and sweat less. Go you for making it work for you and good luck with your list!
Argh! Hate it when life gets in the way of my plans! Good luck on the job hunt.
My recent post Who asked you
Good luck with the job hunt!
…and don't EVER let anything come between you and you watermelon. Life's too short not to eat naked 😉
Hey, at least you joined Twitter and had an article syndicated! Your list stresses me out. Just keep two or three of those items. Ha!
My recent post Are They Laughing At My Son's Speech?!?
That, is a huge list for just one season. I'd have revised it to include eat at least 10 different fruit naked. But that's just me 🙂
Good luck!
My recent post Talking
Good luck on finishing the novel! I haven't thought about a slip and slide in years!!! It looks like you've already crossed some things off the list, way to go!
My recent post Ode To Sweden
Wow, girl, you are ambitious! Good for you. The 6 books in a month I would love to try though! I just finished "The Hunger Games." Have you read it? It's awesome.
… I think I need to make a list. I love lists. 😉
My recent post Love reruns?
Cracking up at eating watermelon naked!
