I was driving down the road with my cousin (21 y.o) on one side of me and my Mother and my younger (17 y.o.)cousin in the back of the car, when I looked at myself in my rear view mirror and realized I'm starting to look my age. I'm actually getting older. I have been feeling it for years and now I'm starting to see it. The worst part was not that I'm aging (though I will admit I am not taking it well ) it's the just the more I thought about getting older the more I realized I've been acting my age and far above my age as well..... the begining of the end. And my birthday is soon.... take at least five candles away please...

Dear Single Girl... You seem to know too much about how I feel... I think most of those 30 comments have run through my mind a lot. Yet, I just now connected to your blog. WOW.. You are psychic!
