Oh the things I could do with those ears....


The weekend went great. Saturday had a big family party, which is always fun. Sunday, Drummergirl & I went out to the mall & stuff to do girly stuff then had a huge fat steak... Yesterday I woke up feeling like my head was going to explode from the inside out. Then I looked outside & saw it was black with storm clouds. God I can't wait for my surgery. Had to call in sick. So today my head still hurts & I am fucking freaking out about my birthday in 2 days. I am going to be 30... All I can show for it is 3 cats... No husband, no baby, no house, no real career.... But I do still get carded for cigarettes... Seriously, I just got carded on Thursday... So now I am back listening to NIN & crying softly on the inside... On the bright side, tomorrow Inca is taking me to the NIN & QOTSA show for my birthday & I get to start my weekend of utter debauchery tomorrow night. My goal is not to remember the transition from my 20s to my 30s. Only going to come out of my beer & weed induced haze for my family dinner on Thursday with my grandparents... Well then I might introduce champagne into the party in my liver.... Because being drunk on champagne is classy...

Okay you have tons to show for yourself as you stare 30 down...

1. You are totally cute.
2. While you may not have a "career" per se, but you have a very good job, that most people would kill for.
3. You have a great group of friends and family who love and support you.
4. You are about to take off on an adventure in Europe that most people would envy.
5. You are in a kick ass all girl band that rocks socks and you all look cute doing it.
6. You have nice gams.
7. You have good tattoos, no shitty neck ones, or tear drops from your eyes.
8. Once you get the growth removed from your head you will be in relatively good health.
Would you like me to go on or is this enough...husbands and babies are fine but they aren't everything, and the measure of your life worth shouldn't be tallied by a man or a child, it should be about how you feel. You are an awesome chica, and those things (husband and baby) will come when the time is right and until then have a kick ass time, and who gives a fuck about 30, I say bring it on 40!!!!!

Can't wait to see you on Thursday sorry I missed family bday party, but the real party begins with Daniel....

Hey girl, I'm going to do this in the hopes that you'll do it for me in 4 months . . .

Age means nothing. It's just a day, a date, a number. It's NOTHING about who you are or what you've done. Besides, you are an amazing and beautiful woman who has travelled, has a steady job with good pay, you live on your own, you're in a hot band, you are a GREAT caretaker to those cats (which shows your compassionate heart), you have a great relationship with your family and a nephew who probably thinks he's yours, you have big plans for the future (more world travelling and living in NY, for example) and when you're ready for those other things, I know they'll come along. And think of all the stupid-ass shit you've never done -- no failed starter marriage, no arrests, no car crashes, no too-young pregnancies, no LSD brain damage, no disownment, hey, even no college degree you're not using -- think of the money you've saved!

In short, even if thirty was some sort of marker or milesetone (which it SO isn't), you have nothing to regret or apologize for. You rule! (Incidentally, I must have been writing this at the same time as Monkeygirl, so sorry for any overlap.)

Gynagirl, you kick too much ass to be whining so much about turning 30! =)

Mensa, I also expect you to either be taking pictures or holding back my hair on Thursday. You better be there, beyatch, or else I will bust a Thesaurus cap in yo ass...

BTW, all those things you "don't have," well consider this.

Marriage - I don't know anyone who's been married in the last 5 years who actually likes being married anymore. (But maybe Mockula doesn't count ;) Once the fairytale wears off, the most exciting part of your home life will be deciding what's for dinner.

Baby - Kids are great and all, but once they come around, good luck on getting a good night's sleep. And remember all that "me" time you had? It all goes toward baby now.

House - Welcome to the next 30 years of fretting over a mortgage.

Ah quit your belly achin', LOL. You're going to be 30, you like rock and stuff, and I would spank your ass with my tongue. Yeah, that pretty much sums it up.

"Slapping my bottom with their tongue" God, that sounds so beautiful. I thought you might enjoy that.
