32 feels a whole lot like 31 - I can't even tell the difference actually. So no need to worry =]
I didn't actually do much yesterday to celebrate - but I think a trip to Disney Land might be in order for this weekend... I wonder if its changed much since my last visit in 1982?
I have never been to Disneyland! I have all these American rites of passage to complete. Like falling off a pitcher's mound and being kicked in the head by Chuck Liddell. And being serenaded by that bloke from Nickelback. Except he might be Canadian.
Is Annie Hall one of your favorites? I haven't seen it in a long time - I just remember the scene where Allen is complaining that she always has to smoke a joint before they sleep together haha.
If you ever visit LA, I would suggest experiencing D-Land before your Chuck Liddel excursion.
I ended up watching it again the other night when Bob had gone on an all night mountain biking weird festival without telling me and I was worried that he was dead. So I watched Annie Hall and it was quite nice. In 1978, spectacles were massive.
Here is a humble offering of pictures and punchy wordlets. I am a mother of one little girl. There is no more wordlumber, no more sitting on the hill contemplating, a lot more stepping on lego. I still think I'm quite good at drawing though

I reckon since Diane Keaton was 32 in Annie Hall I shall stop worrying about 32 for now, as she seemed quite young and sexable in that.
I have never been to Disneyland! I have all these American rites of passage to complete. Like falling off a pitcher's mound and being kicked in the head by Chuck Liddell. And being serenaded by that bloke from Nickelback. Except he might be Canadian.
(I don't really want to do those things.)
