It's my Birthday

Okay, so it's another Birthday...I refuse to be one of those people that won't tell people their age. I refuse to be one of those people that can't handle another Birthday.

But the truth is...I can't believe I am 38! Honestly, I don't feel 38...I just feel like I am in my 30's. I'm in the best shape of my life, I still have a ways to go, but I still feel better than I did in my 20's. So why the "shock" of "This can't be true". Who knows...maybe it's just the inner self telling me once again I am looking for a job and what have I done with my life?

Here is another thing that adds to my age. I am in love with Zac who is 30, and NO I am not a cougar (apparently a Cougar is someone much older than 7 years). I don't think I look older than him, but maybe I do? Now, don't take this as a request to tell me otherwise. It's just a fact that is true. He is not bothered by our age difference and the truth is many of my friends are around this same age, so why wouldn't I fall for a guy younger than me? I have also heard that men die 7 years before their spouse, which should put our death at the same time. So, I'm feeling pretty good about that. That is until I watched Benjamin Button and after a few tears at the end I realized that I could lose my mind before he does. That would be a bummer, for him of course, as I have lost my mind and I won't be taking care of me...he will.

Actually talking through this just made me feel better. So, with that I will say
Happy Birthday to me...bring on 38...as I feel fabulous! :)

You ARE Fabulous and beautiful!! Zac is actually 31, so the age difference is nominal.
Love you both very much!
