Happy Birthday . . .


. . . to me!

Well, I'm no longer on the very cusp of turning twenty-three. I'm actually there. Man I feel old. Doesn't it just sound so old? Ok, I'm probably really odd for saying that. In fact, I know I'm odd for saying that. But I can't help that I feel the weight of my age for the first time since I was thirteen.

I would be happy to stop aging at twenty-two. Edward Cullen got to stop at eighteen - but that's not cool because he's way old and can't get anything more than a virgin margarita? Weird.

Anyway, the best gift you can all give me for my birthday is a moment of silence. Start now!


Keep going...





And going...





Ok, thanks!

Happy B-Day to EVERYONE who has an August birthday!:)

And, tell me, just for kicks, what age would you have liked to stop at?

Happy Birthday Kel! :)

I loved my early 20s. I'm actually loving my early 30s too. :) Twenty-three was a good year though. I hope it is for you too. :)

Thanks, Marn! I'm certainly hoping twenty-three will be a great year. It's already started off on a FANTASTIC note! May it just continue.

Happy Birthday! You're just getting started! ;) I wouldn't want to stop yet, and I'm thirty-six. I feel like there are fabulous things to come...

Thanks, Alyssa! Being Twenty-three has sunk in now and I'm embracing aging as a good thing. I don't think I'd stop aging even if I could. With age comes all sorts of wisdom or so I'm told.

Happy Birthday!!!!!!!

It just gets better, seriously. By the time you're past a certain point in your life, you're ready to be. Enjoy it now! :)
