Topic: give up your seat to a pregnant woman (bus, waiting area of restaurant, etc). I was doing fine until I stumbled on this gem:
"The only people that regularly offer me their seats are older women in their forties or fifies. It's incredible!!"
I don't even know what to say...but I'm laughing my butt off.
Re: Ventured over to Month board...
Well, us old gals have some wisdom and kindness, I guess.
I found a journal entry from when I was 19 two nights ago. My "life plan" was to be married, have 1 baby and another on the way by the time I was 23 because I didn't want to be "too old" to be a "good mother".
I was an idiot.
It's a miracle I even survived my 20's.

I'm only a year and a half from being considered "older"? Yikes!!! I'm still 25 in my head! Guess I'd better adjust my self-image, lol.
Yeah the reminder that in our 20s we must have had some kind of excrement for brains makes you so happy that it was just a phase.
Age is a beautiful thing once you accept that you are NOT a baby anymore. Embrace your maturity and know that they will look back one day and see how ill mannered they seem.
