no. 100 The most perfect (and grossest) Christmas gift

It was a few days before Christmas and I had nothing for my little sister, Allison.  She is very difficult to shop for, because we have different tastes in.... well, everything. 

Then it dawned on me - I already had the worlds most perfect gift for her.

Some may think giving your little sister your extracted wisdom teeth is gross.  But I'd say it was the happiest I've ever seen her.

no. 84 learn to play poker

I have the world's worst poker face

Over Christmas this past year, I learned how to play poker (well, kind of).  My Uncle Tony has this incredible kitchen/garage/mancave at his house that is complete with a refridgerator that is not plugged in, but instead acts as a spice rack and the worlds largest gas stove.  He and my dad are quite serious about meat in general, and for Thanksgiving they typically cook 3-5 turkeys for 15 people in a variety of flavors.  Around holidays, we somehow always end up in the garage, perched on stools or leaning against card tables, begging for "samples" of whatever they are making. 

One one such night, I found a deck of cards and asked if I anyone could teach me poker.  My cousins, sister and brother-in-law, and soon to be husband spent the next several hours trying to keep a straight face. 

I didn't win, but I had such a lovely night...
