You know you're almost 30 when...
































(Nicholas Nixon's "The Brown Sisters")

I saw this exhibit a few years ago at the SF MOMA, which documents 4 sisters over 30 years.  

I loved it.  

Found it engaging and thought provoking (I mean, I still remember it -- that's a big deal).

On a similar-ish note of 30 years of aging, my college friends and I have been making our own "You know you're almost 30" list after seeing this on Buzzfeed.  Here's mine.

Forget 40. What about 21?

"Why do we work so long and so hard? The mystery here is not that we are required to work or that we are expected to devote so much time and energy to its pursuit, but rather that there is not more active resistance to this state of affairs." - Kathi Weeks

I'm glad I have the ability and freedom to work, which for females, is a rare moment in history.  In fact, I generally like work -- accomplishing goals, acquiring skills, having a built in community, free lunches (yea, Google!), etc.  

But, after 7 years, I don't understand why we work so much.
