Faster Than A Speeding Bullet. April 21, 2009

No I’m not talking about a super hero, I am talking about the rate of speed at which my 30th birthday seems to be coming.  This will be the biggest birthday that I have had since my 21st, a night in which I remember every detail, however my roommate at the time remembers only pieces.  I have mixed emotions about turning 30, and I think that it’s because for my whole life I have had these awful thoughts about that number.  Remember, “Don’t trust anyone over 30″.  Where on earth did that come from?  Then I have Oprah saying that 40 is the new 30, does that mean that 30 is the new 20?  I certainly hope not.  Although now that I think about it 20 was not a bad year.  I left a “comfortable” relationship, and I moved out of my mom’s house and 500 miles away.  Now don’t misunderstand me, I’m not going to leave my husband, and we are not moving 500 miles away…at least not yet, but 20 did hold some big changes and new experiences, and I hope that 30 will hold the same.  Oh, and I would also like to loose 3lbs.
