"Holy shit" I'm old!


I turned 32 yesterday. 32 seems old to me for some reason. 31 didn't seem bad, but 32, that sounds like a real adult age. Yikes, or as Danette would say, "holy shit!"

I didn't really want to make a big deal out of my birthday this year, so I didn't plan any big parties or gatherings. I felt like I've made people celebrate a lot of stuff in the last few years, so I went for super low key this time. However, I still wanted to do something! Thus, to celebrate my birthday, B took me out to the Melting Pot, and Karen and Paige joined us. I had never been there, and it was quite good! I especially loved the chocolate for dessert. B ordered the white chocolate/dark chocolate mix, and it was just fantastic. We dipped marshmallows, strawberries, bananas, pineapple, cheesecake, brownie bits, and pound cake. The fruit was the best, but really, the entire chocolate fondue experience was the best. In fact, I could have just eaten that - it honestly might have been one of the most delicious things I've ever eaten! YUM!

After that, we headed over to the Shout House to watch the dueling pianos. I love that sort of thing, as they sing tons and tons of songs that I know and love, and I get to sing along! My parents would love it too - it's that sort of place. The only thing that dampened things was one of the pianists - he pushed the vulgarity way too far. Not called for at all. You don't need to be gross or disgusting to be entertaining. Besides that, it was a great night and a good birthday, even if I AM old. ;)

How can it be mid-September already? - myspace blog post

Time is flying by again! My birthday is less than three weeks away-what happened to 30? It's crazy! I suppose 40 will be here before I know it. Sometimes I wonder what happened to 18 or 25...I suppose that is the way life works though. Gotta keep moving forward.

In good news, I passed the MPRE (multistate professional responsibility exam for my non law friends; it's part of the bar exam). Some of you might remember that I took this exam in August after very little sleep and virtually no studying. I guess you don't need either to pass! In fact, I did more than pass-I kicked the exam's ass! Yay! I'm really glad to be done with that. I guess a lot of people fail, so it's a relief.

In funny news, I recently purchased a web cam. Now I know some of you are thinking, ah Schmiddy, you have to give up the porn star dream, but in actuality, I bought the cam so I could talk to Sarah in Northampton. She has one too, so now we can actually just talk. It's sort of cool, but it also feels sort of geeky. Anyway, if any of you are ever just dying to have a web convo with me, let me know.

Well, my friend Jane just came to have lunch with me, so I must go. Later skaters!

PS: As I mentioned, my bday is coming up. I'm thinking about some bday dancing, so stay tuned for that.
