The bagger at the grocery store looked at me and said: "You look like somebody's mama"...I wasn't quite sure what the hell that meant - was it in a good way like "you look nurturing" or "you look like a hot shit sandwich"..I wonder.

You should totally hook up with my mom, for whom age is just a great excuse for saying dirty stuff and getting away with it (por ejemplo - http://thebadgrandma.blogspot.com/2009/03/grandmas-little-helper.html) Yeah. (Heather, you are mad lucky to have such a mom ;). And she, you.) Ha!

I was relieved and delighted to turn 30, and frankly, found extreme youth to be terribly overrated. (Also, hardcover dictionaries are the best kind. Online dictionaries eliminate browsing, which is half the fun of a dictionary). Of course, I am a 30-year old who does not see the point of Facebook, collects puns, is just learning to text, and favors a drink popularized at the end of the first World War (in other word, I am the OLDEST 30-YEAR OLD IN THE WORLD), so my opinion that 54 is a lovely age may not hold much weight with you (I own not a single Ugg). You created an excellent daughter, by the way. Thanks for that. I hold the firm and unshakable belief that “old” begins at 70.
