Feb. 11th, 2007 10:37 pmI've come to the conclusion that I'm like the Things in 'Cat in the Hat' and do the exact opposite of what I'm told to, especially when it's me that's doing the telling. Having decided a few weeks ago that I really need to get my act together and lose weight to get my blood pressure down so I can have a last ditch attempt at having another child (40 is less than 3 weeks away) and also for the same reason I need to get my blood sugar under control, ever since I have done nothing but stuff my face with chocolate and buns! Pull yourself together woman.
I'm watching the BAFTAs and I'm sorry but I just don't find Daniel Craig attractive. Is it me?
Back to being 40. In truth it doesn't really bother me, apart from the problems of advanced maternal age, I've never been drop dead gorgeous so I have no looks to agonise about losing and it seems to me that actually getting older is quite liberating. BUT... when my colleague and bf was 40 last November the whole staff had a collection and got her a present and made a big fuss. She is a really lovely person and very popular so this is no big surprise, but I can remember when a much less universally admired colleague was 40 a few years ago we all clubbed together for something and the thing is that if they don't at least get me a card I will feel really, really slighted. I think I get on with most people at work, and I'd like to think that at least a few of them are genuinely fond of me, but that is the trouble-I'm not really sure. The dark, insecure OCD part of me thinks that they find me noisy and annoying. Well, we'll see.
