So as of 24 minutes ago…

I am now 30 years old.

First I was dreading it.

And now I LOVE it.

Bring on the next 30!

I can die a happy, complete woman.

Today I read my short story “Kissing Han Solo” to high school English students.

Their teacher told me later that one of her students asked me if I read John Green. She said, “Her writing reminds me of John. If John was a girl.”

Next to my wedding day, this may be the happiest day of my life.

Yes!!!

For the first time in my life I am dieting in a healthy, responsible way and I am now down 2 dress sizes since January 1.

I am still not pleased with how I look, and based on my history, I doubt I’ll ever TRULY be, but this is a HUGE step for me.

No starvation. No obsessive calorie counting. No binging & purging. Just smart choices (most of the time) and moderate, not insane, exercise.
