I was also thinking cause I feel so much older, my parents also had a divorce and I took care of my mom and myself for a bit, how old will I feel if I'm a mom one day and older? Its like I missed a step and I think that just happens with families that split for some reason, there is always one person who takes on extra responsibility and so grows up alittle fast, and so feels older than they are. I don't exactly know what it is but its some kind of grown up change that I feel I want to happen and will happen when 30happens. Maybe this happens to everyone at this time in their lives, maybe its also a light going on that says - you are now a grown up and the ticking biological clock is starting? Great blog! I'm off to follow:)Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05214792179573054167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1259604403107161471.post-42026651974511831652009-10-26T09:57:53.641-05:002009-10-26T09:57:53.641-05:00Well tattoo lip line WILL make you look older. :)
...Well tattoo lip line WILL make you look older. :)<br /><br />I too agree. I do not feel like I should LOOK 29, and yet... I feel mentally somewhere around 40.

My fiance feels the same way all the time. With her being one of the youngest in her PHD program she feels like a "kid" and does things (cutting her hair short, wear glasses, etc) to look older. I always tell her not to worry about it. In the end you are judged on your actions. And people that do make "she's just a kid" comments are the ones with the real problems most of the time.The Ultimate Account Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09841751618261991741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1259604403107161471.post-81401946777882764542009-10-21T21:45:28.710-05:002009-10-21T21:45:28.710-05:00When I was 28, I visited a friend who was working ...When I was 28, I visited a friend who was working in Boston. I was very early pregnant and so we decided to be mellow and go to a movie instead of out to the bars. I was asked for ID at a rated R movie...I mean I know I didn't have makeup on or anything but a full decade younger?<br /><br />I guess at least when we are 50 people will think we are late 30s. I mean it <i>has</i> to work that way right?Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07280709099593968163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1259604403107161471.post-10753368567196544482009-10-21T21:38:13.127-05:002009-10-21T21:38:13.127-05:00Should I even note the freakish similarities or is...Should I even note the freakish similarities or is it just assumed at this point?<br /><br><br />I was excited to turn 30 because I felt like it gave me some "street cred" at work. I still get the "you kids don't understand" bit all the time... especially since my job involves telling people older than me how to use a computer... but there has been a certain confidence in my voice now that I can say "I'm 30"... I mean, if you're 50 or 60, 30 is not a big deal... but somehow they do seem to take things better when they realize I am not in my 20s. Of course, it's usually followed by "Oh, I thought you were like 23". That annoys me because it implies that I wouldn't know what I was doing if, in fact, I was 23... but whatever...<br /><br><br />I thought you vetoed tattoos for Saturday. Drat. I'll have to cancel the lip liner appointment!Audreyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01722034307893201331noreply@blogger.com
