Getting old...


When I got married all I wanted was to be older. EVERYONE told me I was "just so young." Which I really was, so I guess they were just telling me the truth. I shouldn't complain. Anyway, back then and even now I am not complaining about getting older. I still feel like I did when I was 20, even though I am now closer to 30, it's really no biggie. It just seems like I should enjoy the ride since it's gonna happen whether I like it or not. Well lately I have been noticing true signs of change in my body. It's really sort of starting to freak me out. Most of the things are so WEIRD I'm wondering if it's just me? Since I am not afraid of being embarrassed I'm going to list some of the things I am noticing:

~ZITS! What is up with the zits man! I am getting them in places I have never had them in my LIFE. i.e. back, neck, face, and even one in my armpit the other day! Oh and I have one growing inside my nose right now! WHY OH WHY??

~ Gray HAIR!! So far the gray hair tally is 6. They are no longer in my head, thank you. Although the time will come I probably shouldn't pull them out anymore!

~ Speaking of hair, I am getting little tiny hairs all over my NOSE! I seriously have to pluck the hairs that are all over the OUTSIDE of my nose!

~ Gas. Yep I have been having even MORE issues with my belching. Although I think this one really could be just me. But I had to list it just in case!

~ Eye bags. Even when I get a good nights sleep it seems like there is still a little shadow under my eyes.

~ Teeth. I just realized that a lot of old people have dentures! I have this one tooth that seems to be a little loose. But it could just be my imagination.

Even though I feel fine and young, all these things are starting to make me think otherwise. Please tell me if any of these things are way abnormal so I know to go see a doctor!

Oh Destiny!! You make me laugh!!! This post is hilarious!!! Don't feel too bad, I am older than you! I hate the fact that I am getting older!! I too have noticed way more zits than normal, like more than I had as a teenager!! What's up with that?!?!

How funny! I have had the zits in my nose before--those bugger kill and are nearly impossible to get to without mutilating your face! I have always had a little grey patch, so I don't notice that at all, but your hair is darker than mine and the grey would show more, I guess. Maybe you're just more observant! Well, here's to getting older ;0)

You crack me up. So honest. The world needs more of that. From someone much older, let me tell you that all of those things are normal. Sad, huh? A little money can take care of any of those things if they really really bug you. If not, you can learn to live with it.
