quidditchgrrlOh my, I am officially over the hill.
You know how you're reading a novel and you come across a passage that speaks to you as you are?
From Turning Thirty by Mike Gayle:
It was as if from the day I turned nineteen I'd been filling in a mammoth opinion survey on life, and sometime after my twenty-seventh birthday the results came in. Suddenly everything fell into place and life wasn't so complicated anymore. I knew myself, knew exactly what I wanted from life, and I was happy.
This didn't mean I didn't like anything new. I did. What it did mean was that the new things I let into my life were mostly variations on the old things that were already in my life...
Could someone hand me my cane? I think I feel my bursitis coming on...
