110 pushups, 10 for every year? Maybe in a few sets?
At the Tae Kwon Do school I used to work out at, a lot of the teachers would sort of use pushups as "punishment" or "incentive", like if the class was droopy or didn't jump up enough. One of my favorite teachers (who I think has post-type G T2 these days...) instead would say stuff like "that was a great class, let's do 40 celebration pushups!" since, after all, we were taking the class to exercise, why not do *more* exercise to celebrate!

I will also celebrate my 11 year anniversary this month, March 26th. However, I'm as clueless as you are as to what I should do to celebrate.

I've had diabetes for 30 years; sometime next month will make 31 years ... I don't even know what the exact day is. I'm not bitter about it, but I've never celebrated it either. I just never had a reason to.
One day in the last eleven months, though, I did the math and realized I had made it through 30 years. I confess to being a little proud of that.
