I feel old now

I knew this day was coming. It's one thing to watch your friends get married, but it's another thing completely when they start having babies – at least to me, it is. In other words, it wasn't really a big deal for me to watch my two best friends from high school get married – it was a lot of fun and I had a good time.

But now, they're both having babies!! Of course, I'm very excited for both of them, and they're due only a month apart, which means their babies can grow up being friends, just like their mommies did. How cute is that?

I just have a difficult time imagining the friends that I used to make prank calls with and write lewd stories about annoying teachers with being mothers. After all, it doesn't seem like all that long ago that we were playing cards together in 8th-period study hall.

Basically, it just makes me feel really old, and when I think about, I keep hearing that "Lion King" song, "The Circle of Life" playing over and over in my head. That circle moves much faster than I thought it would.
