So, my 28th birthday is here...
...and I mentioned when I wrongfully made a thread about the same topic in the "Bush, Conservatives..." forum, birthdays are getting less and less fun for every year that passes.

I'm getting old. How depressing.

Damn. Any advice on how to cope with the inevitable D-day that will arrive in precisely two years from now?

4. 30 was just another day to me....
So was 35 4 months ago. The only difference with 35 (and 34) was that I got to spend them with my wife (or fiance for last year).

Birthdays stopped being fun for me around my 18th, personally.

7. Happy Birthday Trigz!
28 isn't old unless you decide it is. I'm 42 and I've decided that it isn't old. Decide that every day you improve yourself and that tomorrow you will be even better. I expect to peak the day I die as a very very old man.

Enjoy yorself my young friend!

Aging is tough!

10. You young punk...
You aren't allowed to call yourself old until you start finding grey nose hairs!

Not my rules. I think it's in the Bible or the Constitution or something...

12. 35 here. I was 28 like 5 minutes ago. It really does suck...
Edited on Sun Jul-11-04 01:48 PM by UdoKier
Why is it that between the ages of 13 and 23 it feels like you have all the time in the world, and the years seem to pass slowly, but after that it all speeds up.

Add in a marriage and a couple kids and watch the time fly by.

This topic makes me want to get the hell off DU, get outside and DO something...
