Rita's Rants n Raves

Ya know when I was in my 20's I was living it up. There were parties all the time and the nightclubs on Friday nights, those were the days. As I was creeping up to the 30's I was getting really depressed, I could not imagine myself at the 30 mark, I dreaded my 30th birthday. I actually cried all day. After a few months of being "30" I came to realize that it wasn't so bad after all, and that todays' 30 is not like it was in the 60's. So I came to love the 30's. Then guess what? Yep here came the 40's, but it was weird because I was not freakin' out like I was when I was hitting 30. 40 came without a hitch, I was loving it, again todays' 40 is not like it was in the 60's. Now I know I have a ways to go before I hit....... URGH!!!! the 50 mark.. I am feeling the same way I was when I was turning 30!! To me 50 feels old and damn it I am not old!!!! For a week now I have been thinking about the 50 mark, I don't know why because like I said I am a ways from that age but man it is scaring the hell out of me big time, I think the feeling is worse than it was from my 30's. I don't mind the 40's in fact I love it, seeing that I still get carded at Jewel when I go in for my margaritas (YES!!!!!) But once I hit that age I know that the carding days are over :(
damn shame I am on meds right now other wise I would open up my bottles of margaritas (notice there is an S at the end of bottle, lol) and wash away the thoughts of that age just waiting to creep up behind me. The only thing I can't wait for is the menopause to hit, I can't stand this monthly crap anymore. I just hope that once it finally happens I won't be so bitchy (no comments from the peanut galery, this means you Mr. S!!)
