Getting older, getting more emotional
I'm excited because this weekend I am going to see two of maybe the bloodiest, not quite out to kill you sports out there.Roller Derby and Hockey. I've never been a sports type of girl. The thought of spending two or three hours staring at a football field gives me the willies, yet a hockey game? I'm up for that. Maybe its because I have a low attention span or maybe its because both in a way open something more primal in me. I love the action and movement. I think I'm getting more bloodthirsty. I know I have to watch my urge to swear.The girl who never did, now always wants to. Weird right? On the other hand, I've become more emotional. I cry at the stupidest sappy moments. Any stories about a dog, self-sacrifice, or kids and I end up with a fog of tears in my eyes? Is this normal? Is it my maternal extinct developing. I sometimes wonder if I went through part of my teen years completely numb to everything around. Was it normal when I was the only dry-eyed person in the crowd? That I looked at them strangely. I wonder what happened to cause this transition. Maybe marriage, having something to really care and be responsible for. I don't know, life is just stranger.
