40 Days Till 40 (Day 40)

THE FINAL COUNTDOWN

Today, February 12, 2014 marks the last day of my 30’s.  I woke up in the wee hours (around 3am—close to what I call “the Devil’s time”) with what I think might have been food poisoning as my stomach was upset.  Could have just been because I was annoyed to be waking up at 3am.  Ha. 

I decided to read for a bit—a book called Don’t Worry It Gets Worse about a 20-something who meanders through her life and various failed attempts at being an adult.  So, yes, appropriate reading.  I finally fell back asleep around 5am. 

I awakened 3 hours later, deciding that I’d better at least watch SOMETHING from the Winter Olympics.  I turned on the television, mistakenly thinking that they would be airing actual events.  Instead the Olympic “coverage” consisted of interviews with various athletes and the random shenanigans of the Today staff.  How obnoxious.  I got my figure skating fix online.  How weird that my computer had more actual events than the station airing the Olympics.  And what a very, “Back in my day…” statement THAT was.  

Other highlights of the day included a meeting with my fabulous friend and mentor to discuss future creative ventures (SQUEE!), an unfulfilled search for a certain food truck, lunch at the mall, purchasing a fancy new case for my phone, communication with some male friends (because, believe it or not, I do have some), a trip to Target, a rather lengthy but still fun dress rehearsal, petting a puppy, an absolutely beautiful full moon, three…OK, FOUR, spoonfuls of Nutella and writing my final blog of this series. 

Farewell 30’s.  Hello to a new decade. 

Thank you for following me on this journey.  Join me tomorrow for my entry, “Oh No, the big 4-0”.  ;)

Until tomorrow, Lovelies.
