- That I’m about to progress into a whole new demographic in the “What Suits You?” in the beauty section of women’s magazines.
- 34 sounds young, 27 positively childish.
- Tie-dye, stone-washed skinny jeans, day-glo and “bodysuits” (complete with those pube-snagging crotch-poppers) have all come fashion full circle and this time I can’t bring myself to wear any of them.
- The bags under my eyes concertina overnight, and stay that way for a good hour after I’ve gotten out of bed.
- Fashion can suit me, if I pick the right fashion.
- I’d rather watch Country Calendar with a glass of wine on a Saturday night than do almost anything else.
- I inspect my hairline for greys every morning
- Random, spirally bristles keep appearing under my chin instead of pimples.
- I only check out men in their late 30′s and 40′s; anyone younger feels kind of creepy.
- Weekends are prioritised for gardening and sleeping in.
- That I’m older than some, younger than others.
- That there are old 25 year olds and young 65 year olds.
- When it comes to makeup, it should be all about accentuating the positive, not obliterating the whole.
- That getting on with people is all about give and take.
- That I have really only one regret in life. I saw him in the high street of Whangarei a couple of weeks ago and felt sick to my stomach with old fear.
- How very lucky I am to have all the things I have.
