Things To Do By 30, Challenges 1 and 2: Well, read the entry...

Well, really it's challenges 1 and 2:

1) Give my number to a guy.  Just because he seems cool.
2) Draw a picture for a stranger.

I might have combined these. I might have drawn a self-portrait with my face looking as awkward as possible (thank you mirrors and images of Zooey Dechanel for helping make this possible) and holding a card with my number on it.  Above it, I might have written that it was a picture of me awkwardly giving him my number.  There might have been other notes (mostly about how stinkin' hard it is to draw hands).

I also may have made extreme eye contact while placing this folded treasure in his hand and saying, "open it later" in true middle school style, before scampering off with my friends to drink cider and watch darts.  It's possible I felt incredibly brave after this.

It's yet to be seen if it actually makes me braver about talking to strangers, or ever being public with my drawing again.

One other notable events from the night: I wont Battleship....the final spot to hit and sink and end the game? I 1.

It was a glorious night at Hops on Birch.
