Awe, 30's Not So Bad....

-

Even Greg seems a little shocked that the day finally came. It's tough when you still feel 23 at heart yet your parts are already starting to sag, fat won't burn off like it used to, wrinkles are setting in, and you suddenly realize that you are getting too old to still be "finding" yourself.

I think that is the worst of turning 30 and what makes coming out of your 20's so difficult. You suddenly look back and go, I'm 30, did I accomplish anything I thought I would by 30? Did I accomplish as much as my parents accomplished by the time they were 30? Does this mean I have to be older? I remember a good friend saying once that you suddenly are taken more seriously when you turn 30. As if turning 30 makes you more creditable. Well that's not half bad...

So I did a look back and for the most part I did accomplish everything I hopped I would by the time I was 30. I had hopped to be more established in my work and have received at least one great promotion by now but seeing as that is not the case and I am still an administrative assistant (not due to lack of trying) it isn't a big enough deal to warrant putting myself in a drunken stupor, crying my birthday away to nostalgic movies and all that other depressing stuff I think people who turn 30 feel they should do. Come to think of it, I don't even think I got buzzed on my birthday.

The birthday get together was great and the perfect way to start another new decade.
