That’s twice in 2 months I have changed the focus of my fatblog. (btw, LJers won’t know what I’m talking about. I’m posting from my fatblog right now.
Anyways.. I had mentioned to a coworker on saturday that it was my birthday in 7 days. He asked how old I was turning and I couldn’t remember. So he asked what year I was born and I told him. 1972. And the first thing that shot out of his mouth was, “WOW! YOU’RE OLD!” Then he asked how it felt to be so old and pointed out how I’m almost at the end of child bearing years.
Well, ffs! I wasn’t really thinking about my age or “how it felt” until he openned his mouth. But he is kinda right. I’m 4 years away from 40. That’s kinda fucking scary. As I said to him, maybe I’ll be more used to the idea 4 years from now. But now? No way. It just doesn’t feel in sync with how I feel. Hell, I don’t even feel 35 ..or 36.
This got me thinking. If I don’t start taking better care of myself now, when I turn 40 I’ll probably feel it too. So anyway, that’s why the motto has changed. And I don’t know when I’ll get serious about being healthier, but I’ve already gotten serious about one or two other things and once those are done, I’ll have room in my brain for this one. :)
