The other day, I was wasting time on my computer, browsing some old photos. Chris saw said old photos over my shoulder- photos from five years ago, when I first got my very first incarnation of the macbook and discovered the joy that is photobooth.
His comment? "Wow, you look so young!"
Which had me wondering if I really, you know, do I REALLY look all that older, five years later?
Do I?
Do I?
Shockingly, yes.
Dammit.
Which I discovered in vain, looking upon attempted photo after attempted photo on my now five-year-old (that's nearly 30 in computer years, you know) macbook. You know, I did try to recreate above photos, JUST for research purposes, of course.
You're welcome, of course. What a face, I know.
You're welcome, of course. What a face, I know.
Because, dammit again, come Sunday I'm going to be closer to 30 than 20. I'll have jumped the hump to my nearly-late-twenties. I'll be six and twenty years aged.
My lord.
And to top it off, I found two grey hairs today. TWO. What the hell is happening to my world?
well at whatever age, you look great and have obviously retained your great sense of humor!
ReplyDeleteTry not to count the grey hairs....keep your sanity. I have over 40 and I'm only 26 years old! So sad.
ReplyDeleteAhh, 26 hit me hard. I thought 25 would, but 25 was no biggie, whereas 26 was depressing. Now I'm 28...still alive and with more than 2 gray hairs. Ah, aging. Can't stop it!
ReplyDeleteIs it weird that I stare at old pictures and then my face in a mirror and try to pinpoint HOW exactly I look older? Because I know I do, and it perplexes me what exactly it is that changed. Well, except the eye wrinkles. I like to think they're from being so darn happy, but yea. Probably not, lol!
ReplyDeleteI speak to you from the future as a 28 year old! It's not so bad :) You've done some pretty kickass things in your life by 26. And personally I think you actually do look the same. I thought the top photos were recent!
