Being 30

I'm telling you, since I turned 30, I have become aware of a few things. They were probably there when I was 29, but I think I just notice them more now. I don't necessarily MIND these things, but I roll my eyes about them.

1. I have more bathroom products now than ever. The "bathroom backpack" I have on tour just keeps growing. I used to literally use whatever body lotion I had for my face. Now I have a night lotion, and a day lotion. I used to just wash my face with anything. Now I have eye makeup remover, and two different face washes. Geez.

2. I have veins. In my legs. At this rate, by the time I an 40, I will never be able to wear a dress or shorts again without offending people.

3. If I go out partying with friends, it takes me like a day and a half to feel OK again. I remember when I was in my early 20's, and we would all go out, EVERY Thursday night until the bars kicked us out. Then I would wake up and go to work the next morning. Nope- now I have to sleep until lunch time, suffer through the day, and go to bed early.

4. I cannot stand loud, busy bars. If someone bumps into me, I feel like hittng them, rather than doing a shot with them like I would have done 5 years ago.

5. I cannot eat what ever I want anymore. Instead of it disappearing into thin air, it now turns into fat.

6. I am getting these strange brown spots on my hands. I think they are age spots. Sick.

7. I have to color my hair, because greys pop through if I don't. It's really bad when I stand under the unflattering lights of a hotel bathroom.

All of this being said, 30 has been fun so far. Really, it has. :)
