BluePlasticStraw is reminding herself that goals are important

Have a really good 30th birthday. (read all 6 entries…)
Having second thoughts

If I have this as a goal and I fail, I’m gonna feel extra, double crappy. I may just go back to the denial stage where I’m 29 and holding. Hell, everyone thinks I look younger, so I should be able to pull that off for a while.

Des is still alive but has no joy to share

If it makes you feel better...

...I was diagnosed with cancer 2 days prior to my 30th birthday. Compared to that, yours should be really good. :-D

Yes, you do look much younger. When’s your birthday?

BluePlasticStraw is reminding herself that goals are important

I may be old,

but I don’t have cancer. I’ll have to keep that in mind. :-p

My birthday is October 3rd.

It's all relative

The 3-5 year olds that I work with think that I’m positively ancient.

i will vouch for you

if you decide to stay 29. no one will know. ‘cept you, me, des the rest of the world on 43T…. i am sure we can keep it hush hush ;)

BluePlasticStraw is reminding herself that goals are important

Ah crap

Well, I suppose the cat is out of the bag now. I’d never pull it off anyway; I’m a terrible liar.

So, I’m out of denial and into mourning my youth. ::sob::

no, now you get to

say you are not yet remotely close to 40 and you still look 20… at least that is what the brochures for negating aging say…

and who put a poor cat in a bag in the first place? i thought this thread was about your birthday and age not kinky animal tricks…

BluePlasticStraw is reminding herself that goals are important

Kinky?

I have a hard time keeping my cats out of bags. It’s not so much letting them out as forcibly removing them for their own safety.

LOL

There's always Canada

Though, I’m afraid I might break a 15 year old. :-/

Christine is working hard.

You must be really looking towards your 51st birthday

I'm confused

I don’t know whether the cheers on this entry are meant as encouragement for having a good birthday, or encouragment to forget the whole thing and live in denial. LOL

Encouragement to ENJOY, of course, darling!

As most women do, I mourned the passing of my twenties with much anxiety. More realistically, I should have been celebrating the fact that I SURVIVED my twenties!! Two years into my 30s, I now realize that I know who I am as a woman, and feel a confidence that I didn’t have in my 20s (confidence not to be confused with recklessness). The uncertainty of “Who am I? What the hell am I doing?” is (mostly) gone, and I actually feel like a citizen of the world, not a spectator. Great things lie ahead!

BluePlasticStraw is reminding herself that goals are important

Thanks :-)

I’m really not that stressed about it overall, but there’s always that little twinge when I compare myself to what I thought life would be like at 30. Somehow I don’t feel as grown up as I thought I would. Overall, I don’t really think that’s a bad thing.

I don't feel grown up either.

But I like it like that.
