I've tried to think of it as my Life, The Universe and Everything year but it hasn't been all that momentous so far.
Yeah, my Hitchhiker's year has been a little too momentous in a bad way. I am looking forward to 43 a LOT, because 42 has not been that great, so far. The rest of the year needs to be winning lottery numbers, book deals, and trips to Disneyland to make up for it.
The numbers conversation is hilarious. Where is Nilly when you need her?
Oh but sarameg, what's with this not liking 7? What's not to like?
I just finished my nails. Fun, but now I need to wait for them to dry before bed. D'oh!
Ha ha, you guys are making me laff. We are all a decade older! How did that happen?!!
Right??
I am glad other people have these issues with the number of their age -- not everyone agrees with me that 37 is bullshit (especially after 36, which is so nice!), and I don't understand why not....
I'll be 34. Which is so mid-thirties, and not hardly "early" 30s at all. Scary.
I'm turning 33 this year and realized the other day that I was mentally categorizing 30 year-olds as "really young." (My neighbor asked me how old our new babysitter was and my knee-jerk response was "She's really young" and then I realized she was probably only a year or two younger than me.)
Ha ha, you guys are making me laff. We are all a decade older! How did that happen?!!
I blame MM - wasn't he supposed to be working on a time machine?
I suspect a small miscalculation on MM's part made time go faster instead of transporting us, but I'm sure he'll get the kinks worked out... in time.
I think of 30 year olds as really young. I still think of Jessica and Meara as really young, actually.
I'll be 39 this year, but I've been thinking of myself as 40 for so long that it's silly.
Did I mention, Noah calls me Old Mom? (K is young mom...) It comes up when we are playing games because you go from youngest to oldest and I always go last.
Did I mention, Noah calls me Old Mom?
Aw! Do you call them Old Twin and Young Twin?
ita especially will be upset by this if she hasn't seen it: [link] I don't see many actual pictures, but the concept of the hashtag alone is horrifying enough, I think....
Noah calls me Old Mom?
My sisters and I call my mother Witch, or Mother Witch, or MW because when we were little and my sisters were fighting over where they wanted to go out to dinner she got fed up and announced she was taking everyone home to have Witch Burgers.
Conclusion: Watch out for what names stick!
