The Middle-Aged Mom... Not Me!

I woke up this morning really feeling bummed and a little sad about the fact that I was born on September 26, 1977. I think that it was really 1981 but my birth certificate says otherwise. Maybe I am living in a world like Truman in the Truman Show! Maybe what I thought was true really isn't so, but is BETTER! Anyhow, idealism aside, after I examined the new crows feet around my eyes that popped up mysteriously over night, I literally looked into the mirror and said, "this could be the end..." but then came an annoying rebuttal from my own head "I think I am going to make it the beginning..." NO JOKES! I really said this to myself. I am going to change the way the "middle-aged" women is looked at (at least to those who know me). For crying-out-loud, I still love huge hoop earings, black nail polish, funky bags and MTV... I don't feel "middle-aged"!!! I don't think I look "middle-aged" and for pete's sake I certainly don't act "middle-aged"!

Well, I guess this happens to everyone, I just don't feel like it should be happening to me. NOT YET at least!!! I mean, don't you think a person should be the age they feel... Well, then I guess I am 25. YA, that sounds about right. YAY!!!

  1. HAPPY 30TH B-DAY! I say you're only as old as you feel. Plus you act WAY immature for you age anyway. =) haha just kidding. But if you ask me, you don't look or act middle-aged. You're just fun-loving lindsay.

  3. I said it before, but happy birthday, Lindsay. I have to agree you don't act middle-aged. Here's a quote from the Importance of Being Earnest:
    London society is full of women of the very highest birth who have, of their own free choice, remained thirty-five for years.
    Just change it to 25 and you're set.

  5. Linds, I can feel your pain. I came to this point myself this year. But you will never grow old--of anyone I know, you will stay young forever.
