Middle aged

Well, so I'm 32 today. Jeff and I decided this can only mean one thing: it's time for my mid-life crisis. I haven't actually chosen how I am going to express this, yet.
Here are my options:
  • date someone several years my junior. (However, this one won't work. I AM married, after all.)
  • bleach my hair
  • go back to shopping in the juniors section
  • get really into top 40 music (but of course, be a couple of months behind...)
  • find some teens to hang with and prompt them to say I am way cooler than most 32 yr olds
  • buy a sports car (don't ask me where I will put the 3 car seats)
  • laugh just a little bit louder

Surely one of these will help me reclaim my youth.

If not, there's always "over-tanning" ...

You could totally pull off bleached hair! Another option for you...texting faster than you can talk!

I think I am voting for texting faster than you can talk AND laugh lounder and talking during movies at the theater! Oh, the over 30 crowd, we are still "cool". Well, maybe ONLY in our over 30 crowd!

Enjoy your special day!

Happy Birthday!! You are now an official member of the 32er club. We do use bleach products in our hair, and sometimes laugh louder than anyone around you.

Happy Birthday!

If you can still wear something in the junior section, I'm going to shoot myself.

Amy Griffin said...

Do all of them! Hope it was a great one.

Maybe you should celebrate with a tattoo!

Oh to be 32 again...ha! I hope your birthday is wonderful. I would definitely go with the bleached hair and tatoo. Don't forget a couple of additional body piercings...

Happy birthday. And I say you can never be too rich or too tan.

(I don't really say that.)

Unknown said...

I'm 23, and I really do think you are cooler than most 32 year-olds.

I say we take a girls trip somewhere when Jenny is up to it. I have to admit I thought about tanning the other day. Happy Birthday!!!
Hugs!

Hope you had a good birthday! I'm 32 & I still shop in the juniors occasionally, usually just for jeans 'cause they're the only ones that fit right!
