Sobering Thought

My excitement over the fact that the mini-van is paid off now has been replaced with the realization that I've been driving it for 5 years. I have been driving a mini-van for FIVE years. Never thought I was cool, but this is a new low. It's pretty darn convenient but does signify that you've given up and embraced the suburban lifestyle with kids. And this is why I insist on getting the cool jeans, must retain some sense of dignity.
