33

While we were packing & without the internet I had a birthday. Yay me! I'm older. Well, it was a good one. Lunch out, Hires for dinner. (Mmmmmmmm...) Getting Lauren soaked on the bumper boats at Boondocks. Then Vern came home with this for me...

I hadn't meant to hint that I wanted a Calla Lily plant when I'd eyed them at Lowes, but I'm thrilled that he picked me up one anyway. My favorite. Maybe I can even keep it alive for awhile. We shall see.
After boondocks, even though I was wet and had stuck my hair in pigtails to get it off my neck I let Brandon take a picture of me. Oh my, I saw these shots & was ickified. It's okay that I look my age, but since when is it okay to have crinkly eyes & break out at the same time? (Yes people, they are crinkles, not wrinkles. I am still in denial.) I looked at these and felt positively pooky. The only way I'm even sharing is by messing with one enough that it is no longer an actual picture of me, just a sort of representation. Of me. Age 33.
