MIRROR, MIRROR
After writing about the short video, "Dysenchanted", my mind wouldn't stop thinking about the different characters in fairy tales (I told you, I'm totally OCD Goldilocks!) Even worse than the bad news that I'm OCD girl, is the news that I'm also Snow White's evil queen step-mother! The mirror, mirror chick! Yea, that's right, you heard me, I am one vain and selfish mother figure!
Perhaps if I didn't have a twelve-year-old daughter that is getting more gorgeous by the day, as I get, shall we say, shorter, fatter, more wrinkled and greyer, I would not be in the emotional quagmire that I am. Is there any justice to this mother-daughter transference of beauty? If I were getting wittier, wiser and closer to enlightenment with each age spot and cellulite blob, that might work for me, but alas, just more bitter, more slow-witted and base with my emotional reactivity.
Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who is the most pathetic of all?

I agree that you're looking in the wrong mirror...AND....I am jealous of my daughter too!

NO, I don't want to be 12 again and have to deal with all that teenaged angst, I love the freedom of not having to care about a lot of stuff because I am in my 40s and if you don't like me, tough on you...AND...firm, round, perfectly shaped boobs really are a good thing!

Oh Carrie...you ARE getting wittier, wiser, and closer to enlightenment with each passing second(thus...more beautiful). Deny it all you want...that doesn't make it true!

Michelle O'Neil said...

How about a joke?
Wife
"I just came back from the doctor, and he says
I'm in better shape than most 20 year olds!"
Husband
"Oh yeah, what did he say about your 50 year old
ass?"
Wife
"Honey, we didn't talk about you!"
