It's been a long time since I have actually enjoyed my birthday. Don't get me wrong...I've had some great parties and have spent many of them with people that I love. It's just that when you turn thirteen you become a teenager, sixteen is your drivers license, voting at eighteen, drinking at nineteen, legal in the US at 21....from then on it's kinda down hill. Twenty five is closer to thirty than twenty...and it seems to move faster from there.
I woke up the other day and realized I was no longer a teenager. I'm assuming that most people figure that out in their twenties...I'm not sure how I missed it. I am one of those annoying people who thinks she understands teens because she just was one...way over a decade ago. I'm old.
I woke up and realized I have the body of someone who has had a baby...the wrinkles of a past lifeguard...and that I no longer wash my hair or shave my legs near as often as I used to. I guess it's because it all doesn't matter that much anymore. Or does it? Do I really want to be that person that blends in with the wall paper or would I rather command some attention when I walk into a room. I don't need to be the prettiest girl in the room, I just want to be relevant. I guess my personality often keeps me from getting completely ignored....but is that enough?
Nope...I want to be sexy. Not that freaky sexy that some older women try to achieve...you know, married cougar with kids. Not exactly what I am looking for. I just don't want to be a frumpy mommy. So I need to find that new me...the sexiest middle-aged (said with a frown) woman that I can be.
I have no idea where to start...but here's to me! Wish me luck....
