Go Shawty. It's my birfday

[Kill_em_All]

Sigh. I'm 32 today. I still FEEL like I'm 26. I still ACT like I'm 15. I still DRINK like I'm 21. I still BANG like I'm 18. I WORK like I'm 45, I SLEEP like I'm 2, I FART like I'm 68 and from Wisconsin, and I DRIVE like I'm 19. I'm AMBITIOUS like I'm 22. I'm LAZY like I'm 55. I'm UNCERTAIN like I'm 16.

But I'm not any of those ages. I'm 32. What do the thirties have to offer? Nothing that I can see. Still eager to be in my 20's. Starting to wish I'd get carded for alcohol more than I do. Wish my life would have, by now, amounted to more than it has, but feel like it's not too late to accomplish more.

Do birthdays just continue on a downward spiral of mediocrity, or do they begin to regain luster after a certain age? Because I've gotta be honest here; I feel like they keep getting less and less relevant. I feel like eventually, they're just going to be another day, endless and tiresome.

My friends still make a huge celebration of the day. I still get free drinks, and people come out in masses to congratulate me on living another year without putting a pistol in my mouth. My kids still do things to let me know that I'm loved, and my family all calls to wish me well. But I, somehow, don't find the day as appealing as I once used to. The joy and happiness once felt on the day of my birth is now, more and more, becoming replaced with complacency, depression, and wishing that I had more to show for this life.

So ultimately, I'm glad to have lived another year. I'm grateful that I have friends that care, family that wishes me well, and children that love me unconditionally. But aside from that, I wish birthdays didn't exist.

You have not reached the tipping age yet, young grasshopper.


I'm still a physically dominate powerhouse of a motherfucker @ 40. ( 40+ 60 days)

Yet ... I've reached that tipping age of too old to start anything new and too young to quit altogether.

Enjoy your remaining 8 years ... hopefully you are NOT transitioning from one life to another at 40 like I did.

Man .. did that suck.

I stopped caring about my birthdays after 16 and only looked forward to 18... after that... I just don't care, or even notice. I woke up one day to "happy birthday!!!" and I was like, "Huh? Oh yeah..."

Here's wishing you well and congratulating you on another year sans a pistol in your mouth.

I can't say I can relate to that latter portion of your post about birthdays losing their luster. It was beaten into me very early on from my parents that birthdays amounted to absolute horse shit. So much so did I learn this lesson that I forgot it was my birthday in 5th grade. Not until several days later when the teacher told me I forgot to bring in treats was I aware of this fact. I have forgotten my own birthday several times since.
Luckily the wife doesn't give to rat fucks about birthdays either, so when we forget each others birthdays, neither party really gives a damn.

Anyways, happy 32nd, hope you make it to your 33rd.

Happy Birthday!

[SlimSkeeter]

Hmm...The birthday before last (of mine) my best friend came up to me and slapped me on the shoulder and said "Happy Birthday". I looked at him funny for a minute before I realized he was right...I had completely forgotten my own birthday.

That being said, Happy Birthday!!!!

When posted to a certain warship once upon a time, I managed to get my name on the birthday list on weekly orders on no less than 5 occasions in one calender year.

In 2003, I turned 24 five times.

Happy birthday!

[Kill_em_All]

In retrospect, drinking grain alcohol til 2am with the knowledge that I had to work at 8am probably wasn't the best idea I've had in a while. Also, it's November, 26 degrees, and I somehow ended up with swimmer's ear. Figure that one out.

God, I feel horrible.

[Mamba]

Happy Birthday, Kill!

I love birthdays. And I still get excited about turning a year older. I suppose that will dimish when I turn 50...............

So will your Vaginal lubrication .... buy lube now in preparation.

Spot the elderly emo. Oh oh I see him! He's in the first post!

Happy B'Day, chief. Fucking 18 year olds at your age is widely accepted and a known solution to any newfound emotional doubts you have over where your life is heading.

Look on the bright side. At least you're not living on your mom's couch anymore.

I already wished you a Happy Birthday.... Ok I'll do it again. HAPPY BIRTHDAY! :yociexp37:
