Countdown to 31
-
Eight minutes before I'm 31. 31. Thirty One. Thirty was a an indication of getting on, but thirty one... It means that you've now been there done it, wrote the book. You have past it. Mate, you are old.!:(
I Dream of Absolute Zero
By the time I post this, you'll be 31. I know what you mean. You're now 'in your thirties'. Well, I am 37, which means I'm in my LATE thirtes. Still, I'd be more upset about it if my life sucked now as much as it did when I was 22.

I raise my glass to you! I agree with that sentiment because I try to look at aging as being like the maturing of a fine wine. You live and learn. ( I'm 38 )

Agree with you on that :)
I'd like to help but I don't feel like Googling it for you.

Bloody hell! I only went to the loo for a sec. All I can say is: AAAAHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!. I'll be at work tomorrow (stupid me didn't take the day off), but I'm wondering whether I'll take it well or not. So far, I'm getting a bit nervous :~ .. not panicked, but nervous.

Oh yeah. I know what you mean. My life completely sucked in exactly 1994. If you ever had a trend graph of high and low points in my life, 1994 would be the trough. But I'm always thinking my life right now could be better. I could be richer, happier, more friends, less stress. But who am I kidding, so is everyone else, right?

Yeah, life can always get better. In my experience, it generally does, if you apply yourself to things. The only thing is, the good stuff comes as you get older, and then some people can find they wish they were 20 again, but what they mean is they wish they had the stuff they had now, but in a younger body. And I don't just mean material stuff. I was a moron at 20. I'll probably think when I'm 50 that I was a moron at 37.

NAH, you will just start using Hex next year and then complaining about the youngsters in another 16.

Got all of your kids through school yet? :)

Cheers ::beer:: I tend not to celebrate my birthdays. But this number seem to be a like a quicksand into my final years.

Funny thing, no-one wants to get old, but no-one is keen on the alternative, either :-)

Ha! OK. Maybe I haven't done it all yet. But I like my freedom and kids and wives and all that seems to me to be what you do when you're old. Now, I have a mortgage on my head, so thats a tick on my 'Am I old Yet' list. Two to go and I might as well buy myself a rocking chair.

Nine more years of that and you may be balding with a gut, but get a sports car to pick up young chicks with. ;P Happy B-Day btw.

Ha ha. Funny you should say that, but that the two things that I think I'm immune to.* Baldness I've never really worried about it. Never had anyone in my immediate family that I know is bald.

Beer belly. Now, I drink a lot of beer. I'm Mr. Pub. But I'm forever thin. Up to a year ago I used to have a full gym membership, only to try and tempt a bit of weight onto me, but only in vain. All my brothers, and my father, has got enourmous bellies, but I seem to have skipped that one!

Now you are talking. I've got a 1995 Renault Clio. Does that count? :~

Ohhhh your in for a surprise. I was bone thin and a rail of a kid and used to have contests as to was thinner. Fast metabolism.. After a while in my thirties, ok maybe working at the computer and eating good food, and drinking Guinness regularly had something to do with it, I developed the infamous beer belly and am now a whopping 200 lbs. Being 6 foot tall helps to spread it around a bit, but my friends who remember what I used to look like are still in shock.
