you know you're getting old when...

My lack of blogging is 100% due to my obsession with Facebook. But I'm getting over it. This week, after having two "you know you're getting old when" moments, I started missing my blog because it really is the perfect place to write about these random thoughts and share them with my former audience of five. Anyway, here it is:


1. I did some major shopping from Thursday until Saturday and my favourite purchase was a magnetic spice rack. It's so cool. The base has a magnet (that I stuck to the top of the stove) and each spice container has a magnet at the bottom. Even though I am not particularly good at cooking, this new spice rack may change my dislike for the process. My food will be very spicy and aromatic. I plan to take a picture of my beloved spice rack and show it to everyone. Other aging people may actually want to see it.

2. Last Wednesday my friends and I had a long discussion about our digestive systems and bowel movements. Mel was laughing her head off because in the old days we would have been discussing boys, crushes, weekend plans, drinking, sex, or any other young/fun topic. These days, we discuss the length and shape of our feces. Not only sad, but disgusting.

Those are the first 2 signs that 30 is just around the corner. I'll keep you posted on if I have any silver hair spottings or penchants for buying stirrup pants.

with geriatric love,
