seriously – FIVE hundred? i know i say this every big post, but wow… no idea i would last this long!
i almost missed this one. i randomly decided to count my posts and i was at 499! so then i felt the pressure to do something cool and haven’t posted in a couple days when i have lots of things i want to post about! i guess i will save those ideas for next week.
i always tend to do something different on my milestone number posts. i know i like to learn random facts about other bloggers so that’s what i am going to do!
remember 100, 200, 300 and 400?
i decided to go back to the format of 100, 200, and 300 because it’s fun to write about some new things and change up the blog format a bit every now and then… so here we go, 100 more random things and lots of pics!

Congrats on 500 posts! I enjoy reading your blog, especially this one!
Happy 500th! I love your favourite pictures- what a fun retrospective.
What, you want to live in another state? You and I should do a house exchange for some vacation. I love Cali!
Great happy post!
YAY!!! i looooooooooove lists. these are great ones, too! i somehow missed that you had tattoos! and those are terrific songs!!!
and… WHOA salad!!! the fact that you can list 10 things alone… hehe. nice
HAPPY 500!
i love this post! i'm excited for boston too, maybe a bloggy meetup?!
and magic is TOTALLY what got me through my recent half hahah!
what is this "words with friends?" like i need another obsession.
and only cried 3 times? that's impressive.
i'm about to get my 8th tattoo! i'm running out of places to hide them!
Happy 500th Post!! I love when you do these posts!
Happy 500! Love the blog : )
LOL The fact that you clean the night before the cleaning lady arrives kills me!!!
I did the same thing before. The Fiance used to laugh at me but I insisted I didn't want them thinking we were dirty or something.
I feel the same way about walking into a Sephora – I only do it in full make-up. Or going to a really nice store – I try to look like I don't need anything new!
lol Quirky, I know!
Happy 500th Aron!!!!!
Wow 500! Awesome! I love the photos and 10 things we may not know about you. Happy 500th!!
I'm guilty of wearing my glasses all day at work too. And then putting my contacts in as soon as I get home to run/workout. :p And I think we have the same problem w/buying clothes in bulk. I have multiple clothing items that I have in 3-6 different colors….

I am not a big crier either. And I buy the same thing in 34298 colors as well!!!

HAPPY 500 POSTS!!!!!!! WOW, what a journey it has been. I've loved being along for the ride and I have to tell you, you inspire me daily! I appreciate your support always and you make me BELIEVE I can really do it… whatever it happens to be.
FYI, we eat virtually the same salad… I also have 4 tattoos, AND fave Gu flavors are the same except that we dont' have mandarin here yet. (booo)
Have a great weekend!!
1:45 … can I do it???
Yea on 500! Love the lists and pics! I too buy multiple clothes in the same color
looking forward to the next 500!
Happy 500th Post! I like how you can count on one hand how many times you have cried this year! I know that I don't cry that often either (especially at sappy movies) and I get heck for it from a couple of my friends – they joke that I am cold-hearted!
Four tattoos! Wow!
Happy 500 posts! Here's to 500 more good ones.
Happy 500th post! Sorry that i still have your beloved grid :-/ I promise to get it to you next week…maybe we can have a run date since I've been needing some AM running motivation
