What does a mid-life crisis feel like?

"Feel like?" Well I think it's too early to feel anything. Bad things happen, one after another, some seem worse than the one before, some do not seem so bad after all.

One of your parent dies? That's pretty bad. Your husband leaves? That's kind of bad. You lose your job? That's bad.

If I feel anything is the need to hurry up and do all the things that I have not done before. Not done before? Such as what? I'm not sure! Well, learn Italian, start yoga, have multiple lovers, adopt children, move to a warm and cheap place?

What is sure is that I am at home blogging while my 6 year old is watching the Simpsons...Shouldn't I be partying in the hot London clubs right now? Another failed night and one day closer to menopause!
