The "I'm Old" Trifecta
Something really really really really bad happened over the weekend.
Here's a hint.
I found my first gray hair.
Let me say that again....I HAVE GRAY HAIR.
And suddenly I am questioning everything in my life. Did I make the most of my 20s? Is Levi going to be a well adjusted, successful adult? Is our will up to date? The end is near, folks.
I know, I know, it's so not a big deal - or at least it shouldn't be. But, I'm freaking out.
I called my mom.
"You know what this means?" I yelped.
"Yeah, you're getting older!" My mom said, she sounded a little too satisfied for my liking.
"Well if I'm old, what does that make you, my mother?"
Score: Michelle, one; Mom, none.
"Ancient!" Mom shot back with a chuckle - I think she's okay with it.
So, to complete the gray hair trifecta, I give you:
Three Reasons I Know I Am Getting OLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
(It sucks.)
Oh, whoa is me. Help.
Here's a hint.

1. I found a gray hair.
2. I willingly watch, ENJOY, wait with Bated (haha!) breath for the next episode for a show .... that is on PBS.
3. The other night, Herb and I were bored, so we went to bed at 8:30. And, no, it wasn't because we wanted to, you know, "entertain ourselves." We went to sleep. And it rocked.
Oh, whoa is me. Help.

ReplyDeleteOh, sweetie, just wait 'til you find a gray eyebrow hair...
ReplyDeleteAnd just wait till the chin hairs you want to pluck out are white, and you can hardly find them until they're and inch long.
ReplyDeleteI laughed because last night we forced ourselves to stay awake until 9, because going to bed before that seemed too early. Glad we're not the only ones! :)
