I'm rapidly approaching—heck, might as well say I am—55 years old. That's the age that, when I was 20, I used to think, 'well they lived a long, full, life', when discovering someone of that age had passed away. Yes, age lends perspective.

This age, this year, leads me to think of opportunities missed, of goals not realized. We all of us (well, some of us) have desires and goals we wanted at a young age and now find ourselves looking back and regretting not going for it. For me, there are quite a few goals I never reached—but I regret very, very, few. I've done something brilliant in this life—I'm BG's mom, I'm married to a man I think the sun rises and sets on. But still, late at night, we think about what night have been, if we'd only….

So, in that spirit, I've decided to do something about that, friends. I'm going to reach for the stars—that's right.

I'm running away to join the circus.

Ciao, babies!

When someone asks me my age, I have to laugh. I tell them on the outside I'm 39 but my inner child is a constant 13... and in charge! She's devilish and promises me that we will never grow up. I won't be joining you in the circus rink cuz when I turn 40 I'm becoming a roadie for Rob Thomas.
