Smell Your Life

With apologies to friends & family who worked there, I am not a big fan of McDonald's. Watch Supersize Me and you'll see why, and never want to eat fast food again. (I warned you; it is entertaining, but freakishly scary).

But I really like that new commercial that they have for McD's, where the woman of about my age suddenly "wakes up" and realizes she has three kids. She says to herself "I'm a soccer mom!" and her kids correct her (they're teens.)

Yes, I could have teens; well, a teen. Without even being that young when it happened.

And I totally know how it would happen to suddenly just wake up and have a family & a minivan.

Now, I've gone into minivan-ness with full choice and awareness. I adore my minivan, for many reasons.

But I can see how one would just suddenly realize that you weren't the hip young chick you once were. It makes me laugh. I like it, lots.

Oh yes. And I'm still hip. Young... well. Is 36 still young?
