MrsGrumpy's semi anuual "I am only 33 thread".

[ScreamingMeemie]

I figured I would do this before 34 in June. Yes, I picked an old sounding username (there's nothing I can do about that now). Yes, I am boring, middle of the road, housewifishey. But, I certify that I was born in the opening year of the decade known as the 70's. I ratted my hair in high school, and thought George Michael was hot. I had an easybake oven and a Malibu Barbie. The spread on my bed was Holly Hobbie.

You must trust me on this....no matter what ZombyWoof might tell you. ;)

The real MrsGrumpy:




That is all....

[cheezus]

1. I would have guessed 27

[ScreamingMeemie]

2. cheezus, my new best friend.

:loveya:

[MissMillie]

I never thought you were old

You talk about having a teen-ish age daughter. I figured you were in your 30s.

I have an old sounding name too, and I will be 40 this year. My username is in homage to my cat Millie.

[ScreamingMeemie]

6. Funny how you don't think about it when you pick the name, eh?

It will be amazing if I survive my daughter's teenage years. I try to keep a mental image of her toddler sweetness at all times when dealing with her. :hi:

[BigMcLargehuge]

3. don't sweat it Mrs. G, 33 is as great age

And you both look great and constantly demonstrate a keen intellect. How can anyone not love that?

Hey, BigMcLargehuge is only 34 (35 in July), but I try and embrace every new year of life. I still feel like I am 17 most of the time.

:)

[ScreamingMeemie]

7. MrG does the feeling like 17 in these parts. I will only stoop to

18! ;) Thanks Big! I think you are the best!! Miss modding with you. How's the book coming along??

:hi: :hug:

[BigMcLargehuge]

11. book coming along slowly

been busy with actual work (and a smattering of procrastination) but I am clearing about 2000 words a week, which is the low end of my average.

Here's a recent shot of me (and my muse) in mid creative flow.



Miss modding with you too.

[ScreamingMeemie]

12. Is he writing your intro? He is the most huggable looking little boy!

What a cutie! Procrastination is good for the creative flow...trust me, I'm an expert. ;)

[BigMcLargehuge]

14. He wants to write my intro, believe me

but most of his work looks like something E.E. Cummings would write while on an LSD bender.

He gives me more than introductory text, he gives me inspiration, so it balances out :)

Here he is working on his "draft". It's always good to have a non-functional word processor around for the kids :)

[ScreamingMeemie]

17. My son is currently writing his memoirs on an old Sharp typewriter

we have laying around. Keeps him busy while I am DUing...er working! :hi: It is a valuable lesson in my opinion. Early keyboarding is a good thing!!

[eyesroll]

4. I had a Holly Hobbie lunchbox!

I remember my 4th-grade teacher: "I don't like men with two earrings." (When we asked if she liked George Michael.)

(28, checking in!)

[ScreamingMeemie]

8. Why was it always with the earrings?? My brother used to tease

me about that. He has grown up to sport two earrings as well. :hi:

[SarahB]

5. 33 is great!

Besides, we know you're still a young 'un!

[ScreamingMeemie]

9. Thanks SarahBelle.

I'm loving it so far. :hi:

[Taverner]

33. Second that - Dirty Thirties are the best!

[truthspeaker]

10. I'll be 34 in June too

And it's not old at all!

Now help me up off this couch.

[ScreamingMeemie]

13. Hold on...I'll go get the Jointritis!

:hi:

[Zomby Woof]

15. damn! botox really works!

JUST KIDDING! :spank:

Because you know I love you, and you are a damn youthful hottie without any help from Jello, squirrels, OR Botox! :D

34 in June? I will be 37 the same month (I knew you rocked!), so I guess I am a grandpa now! :hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

18. Ahh see? MrsGrumpy can now go away feeling better about herself

for another 6 months! You are the best Grandpa...er Zomby!

:loveya: Gemini's are the terrific, multi-faceted, beautiful people. I knew you rocked as well!!

[madrchsod]

16. opps......

well if you got high blood pressure at your, opps, age my advice still stands. now i will take my foot out of my mouth....

[ScreamingMeemie]

20. No worries. I am a champion foot chomper. Your post gave me the

giggles, as it always does. I always figure that people are "seeing" me. :hi: :hug:

[kmla]

19. Feh. All you medddling kids, just pipe down...

*kmla realizes he is sounding like one of the villains from 'The Scooby Doo Mysteries'*

Now take your baseball, and get out of my yard!

*he steps back down on his porch, adjust his suspenders and 'wife beater' undershirt, and sits back down on the porch glider. Drinks his geritol-spiked tea, and thinks wistfully back on his near 42 years on the planet*

[ScreamingMeemie]

26. Hehehehe...you've got coffee dribbles on your tshirt kmla!

:hug:

[Snow]

35. Sheesh! Speaking of kids - the name Snow indicates the white on top

of the head - and in the beard, for that matter. Someday, kmla, you'll get some real years on ya. Then, both you & MrsGrumpy will come to the realization that, dadgum it!, there's nothing at all wrong with having some years under yer belt! or under yer hat! or under the bridge! anyway, whippersnappers, I have less than two years till one of those birthdays that are divisible by 10. with no remainder. and dividing by 10 does not give you a 5.

[Bertha Venation]

21. ^^rowr^^

;)

I remember Hollie Hobby. What a blast from the past.

[ScreamingMeemie]

27. She was the best. I wish they would bring her back!!!

She could kick some Bratzz butt. :hi: :hug:

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

22. Mrs. Grumpy's I am just a sex pot thread

Put the okra on, I'm on my way! :D

[ScreamingMeemie]

28. That's tomorrow's thread especially for nsma!!!

:loveya:

I'm bringing the stock pot out!!!

[soleft]

23. Are you standing behind a kid in a Packers Jersey?

[ScreamingMeemie]

29. It's a cardboard cut out of Brett that my father in law gave me.

He worked for ABC warehouse and was always bringing that kind of stuff over. Brett used to live under my bed, until MrG threw him away. :(

[fishnfla]

24. House with fishey, whaaa?

LOL :)

[ScreamingMeemie]

30. Heheehehehehe

:hi: :hug:

[foreigncorrespondent]

25. Oh God!

To be 33 again. :cry:

I was having a lovely chat in a chat room with someone last night (who shall remain nameless, but if she sees this thread, she will know who she is :evilgrin:), who made me feel so old, because how she said her mum is close to my own age, yet there is 11 years difference between us. :cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry:

Oh God! I feel old!!!!!!!

Mrs G, trust me, 34 is a good age to be, and you really don't look like you are in your 30's at all. I would have guessed somewhere around 27/28/29 the latest.

[ScreamingMeemie]

31. I'm liking 33, hoping 34 will be just as fun!!

I'm loving you for thinking I am in my twenties!!! :hug:

[camero]

32. Thanks for reminding me

I turn 37 in two weeks. 33's not bad.

[mvd]

34. You don't look a day over 30

And I am not just saying that at all.

Hi, MrsGrumpy! :hi: :yourock:
