late twenties??

Today.... I am twenty-seven.

Seven years ago I was OBSESSED with
<-----this tiny sensation of a show. Oh Nick and Jess, I miss you. I hoped and wished and bought EVERY US Weekly and InTouch that claimed you two were getting back together. Why couldn't you stay together? Wasn't love enough? ::sigh:: Anyway, remember the episode where Jess turned 23? She walks in the door wearing that dern swimsuit coverup that she wore EVERYDAY and opened her Louis Vuitton wallet that matched her bag and she made the observation that she was " 23 which is close to 25 which is MID-TWENTIES!" C'mon, don't you remember that episode??!?!?! You don't? You're weird. Well, I loved that comment. And now....here I am past my MID-TWENTIES and approaching my LATE-TWENTIES. If you round my age it's THIRTY! What the heck, JESS!


I recieved this email from my mom this morning:

Remember that special feeling when Lilly was born? That is exactly how dad and I felt when we first saw you. We love you!

Totally sheds a new light on birthdays for me. It's really amazing that someone could have the same overwhelming love and obsession that I have for Lilly, with me.
