I'm still trying to get over being 27. 2 months in, and I still feel old.

But happy birthday anyway.

Hmm. This being-younger-than-most-of-the-people-around-me lark is still fun...

Happy doggy birthday.

Ah, but do you recall the location of your pants? That's the real question.

Happy birthday.

I don't know how you coped with a whole year of 27. I'm five days in and already it's all gone completely bizarre.
I would have waited a ******* eternity for this!!!!

Yeah, a whole year of 27 was fun, but just look at what my 28 has already got in store for me, just 1 day in!

Conventional wisdom (7n) says 196.

However, a more modern wisdom (18 + 4(n-1.5)) says 124.

But since dogs are as terrestrial as humans, 28. :p


Oh, and in honour of it being Star Wars Day, I wore my R2D2 tie to work. :D

Actually, given the ages actually stated here so far, I may be the baby of the group.

Feeling old? yeh, I'm there... The guys at work are making me feel incredibly old. :( When they first found out how old I was going to be they were surprised as all hell... They (saaaaiiid that they) figured that I was younger then them, 'round 19-20ish. The torment started soon after though. "She's cranky. I think granny needs a nap" "Just think, in another year you'll be a quarter-century old!", etc etc... :roll:

Umm... Look! a Birthday! Where are my manners... Harpy Bathday Rebis! Clean them demon birds good!

Happy Birthday Rebis. :) Your an honest man, who by all things judging from, is doing an excellent job teaching others, on and off work. Hopefully you'll keep doing so for another 28 years. :)

And your not thirty yet, so I can still trust ya. :lol:

Hmm. So I'm far from oldest, and not quite the youngest (possibly). I hate being a middle-child.

Damn girl, you got some real dumbass coworkers. I worked with a bunch of similarly-aged ppl at the theatre in 03, and no one gave me hell when they found out I was older than most of them. Maybe it was the sharp, pointy objects I kept waving at them. :o

Weird... this one time I worked at an office, I was already twenty-five, and this girl hit on me. Yeah, she was that Asian Marilyn Monroe I might have mentioned once.

Ah no, I guess I gave some people the wrong idea. :p It's a friendly thing, just poking fun and I really don't mind most of the time... I'm usually one of the worst in fact, I'm just getting it all back now. :lol:

Grey hair?

Having hair is a prerequisite for grey hair, isn't it? ;)
