To Me at 30

Time Travelled — almost 3 years

Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, I hope I don't feel as old at 30 as I think I'm going to feel. I really hope I have the same email as I do now so that I can get this. Hopefully the world hasn't ended or anything bad like that. I hope I'm still with Gareth and that our marriage is as strong as it ever was. Right now, at age 27, please take the time to remember that you were optimistic about the future, you loved the color purple, and your favorite food was pizza. You also had *** every other day! If anything bad happens to you (me) inbetween now and the time you get this, know that we've learned that all things will pass with time! I send you big hugs from the year 2006!
