The Journal of Alison McKenzie Nearly 42
09/09/2004 04:03 p.m.
On the 25th of this month, I'll be 42. It boggles my mind. Being "in my 40's" certainly doesn't feel like I thought it would when I was in my 20's. 40-somethings looked SO old then. I don't feel old. I'm often told I don't LOOK that old (whew!). I feel like I did when I was in my 20's, just expanded (both by experience and too many bologne sandwiches).
I find it wholly annoying to be in my own skin sometimes. I am a Libra on the cusp of Virgo....the scales of balance forever being tipped by that Virgo drive to have everything perfectly in its place. Yipes! No WONDER I'm so discombooberated.
I still secretly hope at the end of this journey, on the day my spirit leaves this body, there is a good laugh waiting. A good joke, the sum of my life, a feeling that it's all so small and silly in the big picture. I am currently Dorky
I am listening to my split ends crying out for burial
