Please join me in celebrating
Virtually 40
Much has changed since my XXX birthday: a husband, kids, and the attendant settling down.
But what has not changed in the ensuing decade is a penchant to mark the milestone birthday with a bang. Even better, with gainful employment, I was planning to throw down in remarkable style, with an international getaway and a stateside party. (Those keeping track might recall that as a 30-year-old, my graduate-student lifestyle required me to charge admittance to the last party.) The only thing that could get in the way of such fun would be... a global pandemic.
But no matter; social distancing is nothing but a design constraint! We will celebrate my 40th by doing all of the things I love doing, just from afar until such time as we can do them in person. So get ready for a year of celebrating, ideally culminating in a trip to Morocco!
You might ask: Is this going to be one big Zoom call? (No!) What kinds of things do you like doing? What could we possibly do from our homes? Well see below for some ideas of things that can be done in groups, small and large—and give me your ideas for what else to do.
And register/join here so that I can update you over the coming days, weeks, and months as more planned events are added.
What shall we do?
We’ve had a lot of fun over the last few months. See the archive of our past events.
Below are some of the things I’d like to do over the coming months to celebrate. RSVP to join planned events—and please feel free to suggest additional ideas for activities.
UPCOMING EVENT
Shall we dance?
I have never danced salsa, but we’ve found a salsa teacher form Columbia who will show us how it’s done. Let me know if you want to join and we’ll pick a time in the coming weeks to try it out!
UPCOMING EVENT
Converse
I am blessed with such interesting friends from different parts of my life—in different parts of the country and world. I’m going to try to gather together some interesting mixes of people for conversation. Let me know if you want to join the mix!
UPCOMING EVENT
Craft Beer
Let’s learn about craft beer—and all of the special lingo craft beer enthusiasts love to throw around: IBU, ABV, OG, & crowlers. We’ll learn from one of the leading women in beer in Austin, TX and have a fun time while we’re at it!
What else?
What other ideas do you have?
Call me, maybe
We don’t talk anymore! Let’s find time for old fashion conversations. We may even try out a conversation menu.
