Another year of my youth lost, and another year closer to the big 30!!!! Hello wrinkles, gray hair, poor vision, loss of hearing, memory, bowel control, and all those other things I've taken for granted the past 28 years. It didn't hit me until a couple months ago (seriously) that I no longer can pass for a 19 year old. My butt is just not the right size and my boobs are not nearly in the right spot. I am sad, a little bitter, and definitely not ready to get old. And I'm sorry, 30 is not the new 20. That is something someone older than you says so they can feel good about, well, being old themselves!! On a positive note, I was able to spend my birthday day in reno. We stayed there overnight on our way home from Utah. The breakfast was incredible at Peg's not so Famous Ham and Eggs. I see why all the awards and magazine articles!!! And then my favorite, dinner at the Melting Pot with Danny and Misty. This is the second year in a row we've gone for my birthday, and I love the tradition. Nothing say's "happy birthday ya old fart" like some good fondu! So, I'll be 30 in two short years...... wonder what I'll rant about then? We'll see......

Well, I'd have to say that you are quite comical. =) Not to be a downer but your "youth" was gone WAY before your 28th birthday!
ReplyDeleteBtw, are you saying that 30 is old? How about 31?
30, old. 31 WAY old!
ReplyDelete22... the peak of youth :)
ReplyDeletethough i must say you freaked me out with those wrinkle comments in the classy Burger King bathroom...
ReplyDeleteI agree 30 is not the new 20! So not looking forward to the loss of bowel control.
