The Birthday Post

June 25th, 2003 Comments Off on The Birthday Post

I’m advanced age. Today, it’s official. Woman giving birth at the age of 35 are advanced age, and while I knew that when I got pregnant at the tender young age of 34, today is the day I cross that barrier into advanced age. Had Brown Brown been a premie, I could have still been a young mom. But since (thankfully) he’s still on schedule, I’m doomed to be an old mom.

And I don’t think I’m allowed to watch MTV anymore as I’m now out of the oft-sought-after 18 to 34 demographic. I think I’m required to only watch VH1 and Oxygen now that I’m in the more lucrative yet less glamorous 35 to death group.

But overall, it’s a much better birthday than last year. Last year, I spent much of my birthday at the car repair shop. Adam was three time zones away. I didn’t have a job or a place to live. And it was HOT! This year, I have my brand-new car that’s stylin’. Adam is only two time zones away. I not only have a job and a home, but I also have a Brown Brown. Although it’s still HOT! But this year I have AC.

Do you realize that if I die at the age of 70 then today I am middle aged? Ponder that one!

I feel like I should impart some wisdom now that I’m older and wiser. At the moment, I’m drawing a blank. If I come up with anything else, I’ll let you know.

    I read, I write, I occasionally look to make sure my kids aren't playing with matches.
