HOLY CRAP

So.... I'm writing in this blog.  It's only been freaking ages, I know, but at least I'm taking a swing at it again.  This is going to be a free-flow of random, but when hasn't it been?

In a little more than 2 days, at the stroke of midnight on the 10th day of May, I'm turning 30.
Holy crap.  HOLY CRAP!!!  Where the heck has all the time gone?  I really just can't believe it.  I'm going to be thirty, have been at my job for eight years now, and have been with Zach for eleven years now.  Most of my friends have accomplished more than this and are light years ahead of me, but I'm not really too worked up about that.  Yeah, it freaks me out every now and then the number of married people and people with children we have in our circle these days, but damn, I can HONESTLY say that I'm happy for them and I'm happy for me.

I have my days, yes.  But I'm actually pretty happy and it's kind of freaking me out.  I was originally approaching this whole turning 30 business with a sick-to-my-stomach-and-want-to-hide-under-a-rock-and-pretend-this-day-isn't-happening feeling, but now I'm kind of over that.  I don't really have any plans.  Zach and everyone else seems to pester me about what I want to do.   At first, I didn't want to do anything.  Now I just don't know what I want to do because honestly I'm not really sure what to do.  I honestly think we might just go out to Grimaldi's for amazeballs pizza again.  I'm just happy with whatever because I'm not really focusing on the fact that it changes anything.  Sure I'm older and sure I could get all bent out of shape about all the plans that younger Val made back in the day, but would that really do me any good?

On a super superficial note, I look DAMN good for almost 30, so I'm just reveling in that I think LOL.  I'm so glad I cut my hair all off again because I totally don't think I would have felt this confident a few months ago.  Life is just good.

So I'm going to try blogging about this great life I'm having.  It probably won't be much of anything.  Probably a lot of pictures and random vain things, but what else do you expect?   I do realize that I'm getting older and I'm going to have to start recording all the good shit that's going down before I forget!
