It's official. I've officially crossed the line into aged territory. I realized that last night, when I got to leave work early, planning to go out with a girlfriend, and yet never managed to make it back out of the house after I got home. And why did I stay home? Well, the prospect of my pajamas and some late night nookie sounded too good to pass up. But we were going to go out!! We were going to have some young, single (hey, I can play pretend) fun! But I swear, those pajamas looked at me and called my name and I just couldn't pass it up. My first Saturday night off since I started this job, and I spend it at home eating and snuggling. I woke up this morning realizing that this is the official descent into old lady land. My kids are right. Mom, you're old. I'm so old that I couldn't even sleep in this morning. Here I am, 8:00 am and I'm sitting here, still in my pj's, drinking a cup of delicious coffee writing to you rather than laying in bed after a late, swanky night out. What the fuck is wrong with me??
These pajamas might be the issue. They are the fuzzy, warm generic pajamas that they now sell in every single store. Perhaps if I didn't have such comfy pj's I wouldn't be so tempted to slip them on and relax. But maybe relaxation isn't the problem. Maybe I'm just being confronted with my own change, and I'm not sure if I like it...or maybe I do, and that's another problem entirely. Maybe I'll go hit up some yard sales this morning, surely another sign of aging. Isn't it beautiful people?
