Final Countdown

I'm less than 6 months away from my 30th birthday.

This is the Final Countdown! (Cue Europe)

Come June, I'll enter a whole new decade. I'll be out of my 20's forever and to be honest, I'm kinda psyched about it. Not that my 20's were bad, I mean, I toured Europe, (not to be confused with the 80's hair band in the aforementioned link), graduated from college, got married, moved to Texas, survived seminary, bought a house, had a baby... all good things. And now onto 30!

Sorry, this isn't a "30 before 30" kinda post. Mostly because I'm boring and I could hardly think of a handful of things that I'd like to accomplish before June, much less 30 things.

Instead, here are a few others who were born, invented, created, or debuted in 1984 and will turn 30 in 2014:

1. A&E The home of syndicated all-day-every-day marathons of Criminal Minds and Law & Order. Oh, and Duck Dynasty.

2. Katy Perry. I secretly think we could be BFFs if given the opportunity.

3. Red Bull. I've never actually drank a red bull, but they've been giving plenty of people "wings" for three decades now.

4. The Macintosh. Is that a floppy disk drive??
