I am not odd" to my ancient husband (who told me I was mad and odd).<br />Cos I hit 45 this year. Oh fuc*. 45. Forteeeee-Five.<br />I FEEl like a 20yr old. I go to the pub (ignoring my husbands comments that it is "undignified") with my 22yr old daughter and 19 yr old son. (they complain too - but I've always thought it was a bad thing to listen to ones children). I go to gigs. My daughter steals my clothes (but looks better in them - bitch). I still have three other young wains to help me pretend to be a younger mum who had a bad newspaper round...<br />Nah. None of it works. My joints are weary. I don't sleep. My bowels have become the refuse chutes from hell. Alcohol causes 48 hour hangovers. <br />And worse. 45 SOUNDS old - even to me.<br />I need to grow-up.
