Has anyone else ever had a disconnect with turning a certain age?
I'm turning 30 this summer, and that just doesn't seem real to me. I have always thought of 30 as being a real adult, and I thought my life would be in a slightly different place by now. It doesn't feel old necessarily, just odd.
Oh, DJ, darling. I'm so sorry. For you and Mr DJ. Listen to Cindy's prescription pad.
{{{DJ and Mr. DJ}}} I'm so sorry for your loss.
{{{DJ and Mr Jane}}} How awful. You are in my thoughts, bebe.
Thank you for the sympathies. I'm mostly worried for Mr. Jane's family. His uncle has attempted suicide before, and I'm sure that's got his dad on edge.
I
wish
he wouldn't try to drive up there. He thinks it's better because they won't have to worry about getting him from the airport and stuff, but I think better that than to worry about something happening to him during the drive. Or, if something does happen, having to worry about that. He's just very stubborn. But, also apt to changing his mind, so I have my fingers crossed.
DJ, I'm so sorry. That's so tragic.
Hm, I think we do have some pics left on the current roll. However, I'm supposed to be doing schoolwork now!
Oh, and happy happy birthday, Cindy! You and your dad and uncle shared the birthday?
DJ, that's the hardest news. So sorry for you and Mr. Jane.
I left town when I turned 40. I did the same when I turned 30 now that I think of it. Most people prefer their 30s to 20s, but it was my least favorite decade. I had way more fun, happiness and sex in my twenties. My thirties had divorce and stress and bad work experiences and a fair amount of difficult parenting. And my forties have been better than my thirties: writing success, more sex, happier parenting.
JZ says that Matilda makes me younger. I think there's something to that. It preempts my crabbiness.
In other news...Glamcookie is such a rock star!
Thank you, Aimee and thanks, GC for the early wishes, too.
It's tomorrow, guys, so if you skipped or skimmed, don't feel like you missed anything.
I have to go get ready for the m-i-l's party, but I don't seem to be moving.
