@shewar: @wolf biter: (tiny voice) I'm about to turn 24 and I'm having one now. I'm living in a city I hate for a man I love, wondering why all my friends are getting engaged and married yet mine hasn't even thought about starting to save up, wanting to move closer to home, working an admin job and realizing that I wasted four years and too much money on a stupid degree, wondering what the hell I want to do with my life, and basically wanting to curl up in bed and sleep for a year or so. -hugs-

oh yeah, their beauty shrink is a total bitch. in one issue, she "analyzed" this picture of cute girl, and she was like "you seem pretty confident even with your acne scars," and "obviously she thinks she's got a good body if she dresses like that." wtf beauty shrink?!

I have no fucking clue who the hell Kate Bosworth is. I know she's some kind of actress, but I couldn't tell you one single thing she's been in, and I could walk past her on the street and not recognize her. I guess it's a sign I'm getting middle-aged, I can't be arsed to keep all these interchangeable skinny white blonde mediocre actresses straight.

I think I had that "no longer in the mid-20s" crisis when I turned 27. Pretty sucktacular. Early 20s had some lameness, but I figured it was okay since I was in my early 20s. It's when the lameness was creeping into my late 20s that the blahs started to kick in.

that beauty shrink really is a bitch - i think it was the february issue (?) where this girl seemed confident and seemed to have a really healthy approach to her appearance. and you could tell this "shrink" was struggling to find something negative to say - like, "how dare you feel all right about your face when you clearly have acne?" or something like that.

MC, you're coming closer, ..but you're just not there yet.

@TheFormerJuneBronson: Well you should definitely not feel bad about yourself. I almost quit too many times to count, and I had the full support of my husband, friends, and no other responsibilities. You can always go back and get the PhD later.
Adjucting isn't so bad, you know if you don't care about money, benefits, and prestige :). If teaching is where your heart is you could always be faculty at a community colllege. Some of the ones I've seen actually pay thier faculty more than 4 year colleges.

@PolythenePam: I was halfway through my Ph.D. when I got pregnant, and I tried to go on after I had the kid, but I just couldn't. I just had a catastrophic fail on so many levels. "Resentful" doesn't really say half of it. I'm working on a master's in a different field now, to see if I can have a career that doesn't start with the word "adjunct". The worst part is that the hub was so disappointed in me when I couldn't finish the Ph.D.--and I must be a total loser, what with all the nonexistent support he gave me to find the time for that, bwaha!--and now is doing the same passive stonewalling on the new course of study. He wants me to have a career so we'll have more money; he just wants me to accomplish it in a way that disrupts his life and demands as little from him as possible.

Man, sometimes after I write these things down, I feel miserable about my marriage.

@wolf biter: I had one. It sucked big time; it was utterly awful. On a positive note, everything in my life so far has been a breeze by comparison. When bad shit happens, I just think, but life is still better than it was when you were 26! I think 27 was the worst age for my. By 28, 29, I was getting my shit back together.

when you're dating a loser it might bother you that he's a loser

Love. That.

@I, SBJ, A Fucking Dyke: "White Chalk" is her latest. Came out last year and is more piano-based than her usual stuff. Seems to have kinda freaked out a lot of the critics.

@PolythenePam: @wolf biter: Aww, you guys rock. I try to tell the oblivious Mr. JB that if every now and then, he'd verbally notice that I keep the whole damn place running, it would do a lot toward making me actually want to have sex again, but he never remembers. His life is the same since we had the kid, and mine is completely inside out.

I thought everything would fall into place after grad school too, or at least after having a kid, but things are in worse disarray than ever. The hub's unpredictable work schedule makes it so hard to do things in the evening, too. We had to cash in a lot of goodwill with my MIL to get her to come and sit one evening a week so I can take a class. I don't know how I'll ever make it up to her. I have a goddamn master's degree and I'm looking at these career-college ads like, maybe that's the solution. I'll be a medical assistant. Those chicks look happy...

Can't promise you, wolfbiter, that things necessarily get better, though. But they're definitely not worse. I just don't feel much different, is all. It really is all in your state of mind, and if you just secure your sense of self, you will (ultimately) be fine!

The beauty shrink is a total bitch. She's condescending to the participants and says snotty things to them with the tone of "It's nice, I guess if you like that kind of look."

The people talking about Kate Bosworth say she's this funny, interesting person, but it doesn't translate to her acting or her screen presence.

And she was barely in The Horse Whisperer. She dies in about two minutes in. The rest of the movie just droned on and on.

@DorothyZbornak: That's good to hear. I'll be 25 this year.

I'm glad I'm not the only one bored by Bosworth. And didn't she date Orlando Bloom? I bet they had the most boring sex ever.

@disgruntledcubemonkey: That must be why every fucking woman's magazine says the same shit over and over again. If it's like candy corn, and the last batch of candy corn was made in 1911, candy corn and women's magazines are just constantly the exact same batch of bullshit.

@Archetype: OHHHHH! When you freak out at age 28, they call it "the return of saturn" - all my friends had one. You can google it - its a fact!!

@wolf biter: Are you kidding? I think I'm having one right now. I work part-time for shiteous pay, I spend the rest of my time conversing with a 22-month-old ("Yes! Tree! There are trees there. Very good job!"), I'm fat, I hardly ever want to have sex anymore because I'm so freaking tired, and I can't even have retail therapy. I haven't done anything I wanted to do with my life. Pulitzer prize? Absent. Fabulous job? Absent. Wealth? Absent. Someone to acknowledge that I work my ass off and am worth anything? Freaking absent. Not many days go by when I don't consider defecting to anywhere but here.

I laughed at the crying at work thing, but I have a feeling if I actually did that, I would be given a bunch of hugs and someone would bake me cookies and probably be sent home with 100 dollars from the president of the company. They're really far too nice here.

Maybe I've been partaking freely at the trough of fashion and women's magazines (wait...does that make any sense?), but I think Kate Bosworth's ridiculously gorgeous, much more attractive than most of the prepubescent looking emaciated models out there, and a better choice for a cover than, say, Karlie Kloss or whomever...

She looks so healthy! And by healthy, I mean the opposite of healthy . . .

It must be hard for Kate. Being rich and famous and pretty, seeing your face on the cover of every magazine, it would definitely send me into crisis mode.

Dear Marie Claire,

How about Rachel McAdams? She's pretty. Or Abbie Cornish; I like her. Thandie Newton's really pretty. Michelle Monaghan is pretty AND she has brown hair. I'm just saying, maybe you and Cosmo and Glamour and Elle could put someone other than the SAME FOUR BLONDES on your damn covers once in a while? And ask them questions you don't already know the answers to? No? Okay then. Just different people, plz.

The way I feel about women's mags in general is pretty much synonymous with my feelings on candy corn - I'm not generally a fan, but since it's always there, I'll eat it anyway.

@wolf biter: Hell yes. I went through a 3 year dry spell in my early 20's (no kissing, no nothing!), also lived at home and hated my job. Most of that is now gone but I am still in flux.

@wolf biter: Don't worry sweetie - my mid-twenties were pretty blah but it just gives you no place to go but up. Seriously, turning 30 was no big whoop to me although a few friends of mine nearly had breakdowns.

She totally stole "quarter-life crisis" from a John Mayer song. Douchiness +1,000,000,000.

She's like a model for bad posture and tangled hair. Just the look I want.

And a quarter-life crisis? Please little girl, go back to the sandpit. Why does anybody think actors might have anything interesting to say without a script written by a much, much smarter person?

March was Rachel Bilson's month, I guess Kate is the flavor of April? It's really annoying when all the mags use the same cover girl in the same month.

[tiny voice] Will anyone else here admit to having a quarterlife crisis when she turned 25? I thought I was going to die--I lived at home, I had barely graduated from college, I had no money, a terrible job, no boyfriend, hadn't had sex in two and a half years. I felt like I had nothing to show for my life.

Alright, the one beauty product that will save your life? Eyelash curler.

Also, I am 28 and still in the midst of my quarter "century" crisis. Not quite sure what that means.

My ex had a "quarter-life crisis". Trust me, it does not bode well for the development of maturity with age.
