Am I Regressing?

Okay, something is happening...I don't know if it's because I stopped working this year or if it's because I hit 35...I don't know. I think I'm regressing! This post will be dedicated to my regressions.

I started reading Twilight...I know...really? A lot of my former students said it was good, but that wasn't good enough for me. Then a lot of my friends on FB got into it. There was one girl in particular that is very similar to me in the way she thinks and sees things. She started reading it and said that it wasn't stupid and that I would like it. So, I downloaded it to the Kindle. I am about 20% through it already (I bought it last night) and I have to say that I'm enjoying it thoroughly. It's bringing me back to all of those things in high school that make life worth living or worth throwing away. I'm all into the teen angst and "does he like me" crap that is really fun when you're younger. Granted, it got old pretty quick, but the feeling of butterflies and uncertainty that accompanies youth is so much fun! You just don't get that much when you grow up.

My second regression is that I am once again obsessed with The Hills! I don't know why this show does it for me, but it does. I also can't believe it's the last season, but I understand why Lauren wouldn't want to do it again. Your whole life is under a microscope and scrutinized by random people who you could care less about. I think Heidi is a mess and I hate Spencer. Lauren is still pretty cool and I do like Brody.

God! What's next? Am I going to start watching High School Musical and put a poster of Zac Ephron in my bedroom??? Bill would love that! My final regression is that I have taken to wearing jeans and t-shirts...a lot! It's not that I don't like my other clothes, but what's the point? I did get some beautiful dresses at the mall the other day and they made me feel like a grown up, but other than that, I'm in an adolescent world...taking care of two little babies (guess that makes me a little older)! I hope I don't have to grow up too soon! I kind of like it here!

SO funny!! As I was reading your description of Twilight, I was thinking to myself, "well, it can't be as bad as me watching The Hills!" And then your next paragraph is about the Hills. Too funny! I love that show. I shushed my husband last night because he was talking to me during the show. Ridiculous. I'm 32 and know how you feel. Agree with you on Spencer, Heidi, etc.

I'll have to try Twilight. I love reading and really thought it was too teeny-bop for me, but maybe not.

Twilight is on my list of books to read. Sometimes it's the small things that make us feel young again. BTW, I added followers and my camera is a nikon d60, I found a great deal on ebay and I love it!!

I own the Twilight series. But you're right...it's the teen angst thing. You just don't get the butterflies just don't come as much as an adult.

As far as the jeans and t-shirts...I'm right there with you!
