it takes some old to make you young
[ feeling |

Somewhere between somewhere I grew up and I don't know where it happened. How did I come to this realization, you may ask? Beyond looking in the mirror and thinking 'hey, I look kinda grown up', a few things...my room (though not clean like I've been "working" on for the past few days) is now lacking a christmas light boarder (just an fyi for any of you with the nice little 3M hook type things, hold down the plastic when taking them off the wall because it will otherwise come whipping at your hand that is pulling the tab (that sometimes breaks) and that is somewhat painful). Not only that, but I no longer have a stock pile of shit under my bed and when things go back under my bed, they will be in handy dandy rubbermade tote box things (I organize, who knew?). Other than the whole room thing, my wardrobe is no longer made up of almost entirely American Eagle (and other such stores) but instead Express (which has made up the majority of my outfits the past week or so). That and I now rarely find anything I have to buy at AE, now I don't know about the rest of you, but that there makes me feel kind of old.
Beyond growing up and doing a complete clean of my room, not much excitement has happened in the past month that I have abandoned my lj. I was supposed to go to Hawaii but obviously (with lack of stories and pictures from there) I did not go. Short of the long, my mom was sick (hardcore sick), but she's getting better and now we all (Jahred, Jen, little Stephens to be, my parents and myself) get to go together like it was supposed to be before Jen got pregnant and my mom got sick. Speaking of the little Stephens to be, Jen's due in like a month which is awesome, except for the fact that they don't wish to know if it's a boy or a girl, thus making it very difficult for me (as the aunt who works at a children's store) to buy adorable clothes for 30% off of the 50% off the sale price (like the 50% off sale wasn't cheap enough I still get a discount on top of it :) )
In other news, that you all have probably heard by now (and if you haven't, where have you been, under a rock??), Heath Ledger died which is sad and tragic because he was fabulous and amazing and talent and so young and I adore(d) him. And yes. This has been a bunch of babble and I have to get up and work in the morning so I have wasted enough time.
