On turning 31
I saw the movie Juno a few months back, and it confirmed I have left the Britney Spears demographic and have officially joined the Old People ranks. I identified with the Jennifer Garner character and not the witty Juno. Jennifer Garner broke my heart in the best way possible.
I turned 31 yesterday. I know! What the fuck? Seems like just yesterday I was all, did you hear the new Pearl Jam song, it’s like, so intense?! And now I’m all, babe, I really need a Bugaboo stroller because it’s really 4 strollers in one and this way I don’t have to buy a jogging stroller in addition to the 2 strollers we already own. And also can you run to Costco and buy diapers, wipes, and an industrial sized box of Skinny Cows? Dear God. Who AM I?
Check: Are you there God, it’s me, Jocelyn… When did I turn into this responsible working lady who yearns to shape the minds of my young ‘uns?
So another year has gone by, and I don’t have much to complain about, I’m really in the best shape of my life, and my next 5 year plan is in the works. An observation from the past year: Measure twice, cut once. Whether that be in the literal sense, or more importantly in what you say. Think twice before you say it, words cut far deeper.
