Just How Old Do You Think I Am?!

My birthday is coming up tomorrow actually. And well aging is a hard thing for me. Not sure why? I've got great potential to look good when I'm older because every women on my mom's side of the family is hotter every year they get older. Even Barry says that he married me because he knew the older I'd get the better I would look because my mom, aunts, and grandma are hot. But for me it's just hard, and on a random note, I hate odd number birthdays too.

Well this week I was at the gym doing my usual CardioMix class, which I must add that I love. Any ways the particular teacher I have on Mondays always does crazy things the week of a holiday. And since Valentine's Day is Saturday she had us listen to David Cassidyn (sp) during our cardio workout. Crazy I know, but she made it traditional and crazy fun. So as we are finishing up and doing the stretching at the end of the class she starts asking who remembers and/or listened to him when they were growing up? I, without thinking or evening realizing, say out loud, "who is that anyways?" The teacher is like oh come on we've got to get you into the real world. And while she is saying that, a girl two people down from me was likel "common don't you remember him in the Partridge Family?" And I was like, "what?! No--do you mean the Brady Bunch?" She then giggles and says this to me..."Oh come on you know you watched the Partridge Family when you little, stop being silly." I then looked at her, trying to be cool, and responded with, "well actually NO I didn't. Just how old do you think I am?" She then says without hesitation that she thought I was in my mid to late thirties!!!! Can you believe that?! I mean no offense to those of you that age, but do I really look that old? I know I'm aging. I've got this picture of me and Isaac when he was six months and then one of me and Eli at six months and I can tell I've aged a lot in those 2.5 years, but PLEASE tell me I don't look like I'm as old as that lady thought.

Now for the ones of you wondering how I responded to that lovely 37 year old lady. I very calmly looked at her and informed her that I would only be 28 this week.

She really had some nerve didn't she. EERGH........

Me and Isaac at 6 months.

Me and Eli at 6 months.
