saresmoore I love all of this. And I am just imagining how different your life would have been if you had made it onto The Real World. 🤔 7y
vivastory What Spurlock documentary? 7y
MicheleinPhilly @saresmoore Let's be honest: It would have been a train wreck. I probably would have moved out in a week. 7y
ReadingEnvy I'm 39 for 11 more months but I am ecstatic about 40! I've always suspected I'd make the most sense at that age. Ha! 7y
ReadingEnvy Also high five on #15, one of my reasons for joy about hitting my 40s although my mom had her youngest at 41! 7y
MicheleinPhilly @vivastory He had a tv series called 30 Days. It was an episode where they had someone who was not terribly LGBT friendly live with a gay guy for 30 days. They were filming at LA Pride and included a clip of my wife and me. 7y
vivastory @MicheleinPhilly That's awesome!! 7y
MicheleinPhilly @ReadingEnvy I'm really good with them and have so many nieces and nephews and cousins that I've babysat. I've just never had any desire to have my own. 7y
tricours Is there another way to tie one's laces? What's an MLIS btw? 7y
tricours @ReadingEnvy that's true, in like 10 years people will stop expecting me to reproduce! 😀 My mom had me at 41, but I'm number 4. 7y
MicheleinPhilly @tricours Instead of making 2 loops (bunny ears) you just make one and then do something w/ the string. I don't know, I never learned how to do it that way. 🤷🏻♀️MLIS = Masters in Library and Information Science. 7y
tricours I have to start observing ppl when they tie their laces. 7y
ReadingEnvy @tricours I will be so relieved when people can stop thinking they need to reassure me "you still have time" uggggggh 7y
MicheleinPhilly @ReadingEnvy Was just having this conversation this weekend. I basically announced it to my family at 30. They tried for another 2 years and then gave up. Strangers are another matter entirely. ?"You never know, it could just happen." "Oh have you met my wife? Here she is now. She's good, but she's not that good." ? 7y
LauraBeth This.Is.Awesome. I moved in with the husband on our first date 😂😂 It worked out. But my favorite tidbit - The Real World!! 7y
MicheleinPhilly @LauraBeth HA! You guys are worse than lesbians! ☺️ I don't know what I was thinking. I think I was 21, had just graduated and was already bored. 🤷🏻♀️ 7y
celtichik I cried when I turned 30 (I thought I was so old!), was excited for 40,and now am in reach of the next decade :o 7y
Lmstraubie Don't let Pickles hear you say you don't have kids. 😉🐶 7y
MicheleinPhilly @Lmstraubie Good point! 7y
MicheleinPhilly @ScrappyMags @DivineDiana @celtichik I don't know why the age thing bothers me so much. It's literally just a number. I'm just weirdly obsessive about certain things. 7y
LeahBergen Scorpio and never had a driver's license either. 👍🏻 7y
[DELETED] 3803335244 Oh women get better with age! 40 is the new 20! Great facts ❤️❤️❤️ 7y
Ashley_Nicoletto #uhaul 😂😂😂 7y
L_auren This may be the best one of these ever!! #uhaul and the reaction above about your wife impregnating you 😂😂😂 I know that exact episode of 30 Days; loved that show 7y
Centique Awesome post. I love the comment about "Have you met my wife?" My friend had a similarly hilarious conversation with someone doing a survey about birth control. ?? 7y
MicheleinPhilly @Centique Any time I've ever had to go to the emergency room they've insisted on giving me a pregnancy test even though I tell them why there is ZERO chance I'm pregnant and why. They still make me do it. Such a waste of money. 7y
Centique @MicheleinPhilly people are so stupid sometimes! 7y
MicheleinPhilly @LeahBergen 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼When is your birthday? 7y
LeahBergen October 28th. You? 7y
MicheleinPhilly @LeahBergen November 3. GO SCORPIOS! 7y
LeahBergen YESSS!!! 7y
Purrfectpages I turned 40 in June. I still can't believe it! 7y
Mimi28 I didn't stress out about turning 40. Age is a state of mind. I'm indifferent about having kids also. I'm on birth control and birth defect causing psyche meds, and honestly children terrify me. A baby looked at me and smiled yesterday and I didn't know what to do. I honestly wanted to be a pediatrician until I babysat my bad ass cousins. I'm never around them but still I kind of want one. I think of baby names all the time. Weird I know. 7y
AlaMich Wait til you are on the verge of 50--52 days and counting for me. You'll be looking back at 40 fondly. I am not handling it well. 😳😟 7y
AlaMich And re:the pregnancy test...with my wife at my side, it always amused me in the past. But now when they see how old I am, they just shrug and say, "do you want to just sign the waiver?" You might miss being given the test once they decide you're too old for it. ? 7y
MicheleinPhilly @AlaMich I know it's a liability thing but I've never understood why they think I would lie about something like that just to avoid peeing in a cup. 🤷🏻♀️Also I never would have guessed that you were on the verge of 50. I thought you were in your 30s. ☺️ 7y
AlaMich @MicheleinPhilly Awww, you're sweet! 😄 7y
