Thirtysomethings
So, I was watching Ellen today. Good times... and Mekhi Phifer was on and talking about his 30th birthday coming up. That sorta puts things into perspective...he's an attractive, perceived as cool kind of guy, I think. So I started wondering what other famous people either share my birthday or turned 30 thirty this year...Here's what I came up with without searching very long or hard:
Ryan Seacrest turns 30 the day after me. Also, Jimmy Fallon, Leonardo Decaprio, Jerry O'Connell, Kate Moss, Seth Green, Penelope Cruz, Jewel, Alanis Morrisette and Hello Kitty all turn/turned 30 this year. Drew Barrymoore will in February.
So there you have it. What does this mean...not much. I'm not going to think too long or hard about it...but I found it interesting to think we were learning to read, drive, and the like at the same time, (although I guess most of them probably had a Bentley or ten while I drove my dad's Delta 88) and now are hitting the big 3-0 "together". They are still cool and hip (especially Alanis, Drew and Hello Kitty)...so woo hoo...30 can't be that bad, right? C'mon, don't take me that seriously...what do I care about famous birthdays...as long as I can shake a leg to Dancing Queen and something equally typical like We Are Family at my wedding one day...HA. What the? Am I being serious?
In other news...my computer (the office computer I am using) was being very fickle today...but after a few slaps upside the head and a good dose of Aleve; the little iBook is ready to surf once again. PHEW.
Yesterday I thought I took 3 steps forward with my nurse in the AM only to take 2 steps back in the evening with another catastrophe. That was so frustrating. I lost it. Once again Aaron saved the day and cheered me up making faces and being silly with me. He's the best brother ever.

I can't believe it, my co-worker just bought a car for $11703. Isn't that crazy!
