I recently came across this little countdown, and although I'm not getting married anytime soon, I can confidently cross all but 2 or 3 of these things off of my list:
"With 11 days left until my wedding, the final countdown is in effect. Among the dozens of little things left on my to-do list, I’ve been thinking a lot about the things crossed off my to-do list long before I met my husband to-be — things that have made me a well-rounded, experienced woman ready for a lifetime commitment to another person. After the jump, 20 things every woman should cross off her list before getting married.
- Live by herself for at least a year.
- Live with someone else for at least a year.
- Recover from a broken heart.
- Have a vacation fling.
- Take a road-trip with a group of girlfriends.
- Relish sleeping in a queen-sized bed by herself.
- Get her finances in order.
- Learn to love her body.
- Have sex with at least one person she’d never want to marry (or introduce to mom).
- Find reliable birth control.
- Pay off as much credit card debt and student loans as possible.
- Spend way too much on a something frivolous.
- Exorcise all past relationship demons.
- Travel somewhere exotic.
- Establish a strong circle of friends.
- Forgive her parents for not being perfect.
- Have at least one night she can’t quite remember.
- Experience some really bad first dates.
- Find hobbies that fulfill her.
- Celebrate her 25th birthday."

Hmm. Can't say I agree with all of these. Not into vacation flings, blackouts, screwing people who I know ahead of time are scary or a waste of time... But I do agree with the concept. Get done growing up first. :)
Ha yeah, well I'm not looking to check those off of my list, anyway.
I actually have a lot of those covered. But I have a problem with so many being about vacation. One vacation one is important, but why so many?
