It’s the end of February.
CL used to always say, “Before you know it, it’ll be Christmas!”
She said that all last year, from January right up till, well, Christmas.
This year however, we changed it. She’s turning 30 next year and so everytime she says, “Before you know it…,” everybody chimes in, “You’ll be 30!”
I don’t think turning 30 is that big a deal, but maybe that’s because I’ve still got a few years to go. Plus, most of the people I see regularly are older than I am, so I’m not feeling the jitters about turning the big 3 at all. Even if – I concede – it does sound much older.
CL isn’t the only one. We counted and our office has four people who turn 30 next year. We’re planning to throw them some kind of party. And before you know it, I’m going to have a whole lot more friends in their 30s.
In the meantime, she doesn’t say her famous catchphrase anymore. Just as we were beginning to really like it.
