it's in a few weeks. last night my friends were asking me what I want to do. I don't have many friends in the area at all, so I can't really have a party or anything. In the area I have like 3-4 girlfriends (and I guess their partners), a brother, and 2 neighbors, and possibly 1-2 coworkers. Any suggestions?

    just splash out on a nice 2 day trip somewhere.. just sightseeing.. that kinda thing.


    i have a phobia about having a party for myself... its one of my weird things i have.. the other is i can't take the top biscuit out of a packet.. dunno why
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
  • A couple of my friends and I went on a road trip to Maine. It was quite fun!!

    No time to be void or save up on life. You got to spend it all.

    what he said.. and maybe if you stay sorta close to home.. you'll meet a wonderful guy on your trip and then kill two birds with one stone :)

    now wouldn't that just be perfect.. Your from MA, right? How about a little B&B? do you like spas? go to a vineyard? cape cod? skiing? New York City/Broadway play?

    haha no I can't meet a wonderful guy yet, I'm too fat right now :).

    but yeah I mean it all sounds great, but I really wanted to be with people.

    well I don't know your friend situation but some of those things you could do in a day trip.. no one would go on a weekend day with you?

    humm... I'll think of some other things.

    oh, and I'm sure you're not too fat.. stop that!

    haha well I just don't go near guys if I'm not looking my best, because anything under my best is really bad. (ironically it's pretty much because I had a boyfriend for 9 months that I got out of shape. I had no time to obsess over fitness).

    but anyway, I digress. Some of that might work. A day spa could be fun. I've never gone before. I just don't want to ask my friends to spend too much money (and I think at least one of them might be uncomfortable with spas). Maybe I'll put it out there.
  • I was just thinking that it's kinda weird that I start thinking about my birthday when the nfl playoffs start :).
  • wine tour? rent a bus or limo and hit the vineyards (if geographically available of course!)

    NYC? Vegas? Beantown? Toronto? Jet Blue has some killer $99 flights right now! I should have checked out your location first LOL!

    I'm turning 30 in April. I think we're going to do an All Inclusive for 5 nights in Punta Cana DR. Yea! Or else get a Condo in Florida for a week, not sure. Pricing looks about the same either way.

    On my 30th I went out to a killer restaurant and just made a fucking beast of myself with a crew of close friends and the girl I was having sex with at the time.

    Do that.

  • 30 Shots? :)
    NERDS!
  • 2 guys and a bottle of wine.
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    Paint balling for sure. U might get a few bruises, but a little pain vs a lot of fun. Fun wins. Go for it.

  • ugh, so I'm still stuck on this. I had kind of settled on doing a spa thing, but now everyone has to work on the weekend following my birthday (some people are working saturday, some people are working sunday, other people need dog sitters...) and now they're all pressuring me to come up with something! I thought other people were supposed to plan your birthday...:)
