Happy birthday btw
Thanks for the b-day wishes, and I sort of know what you mean. I've been working in daycares since I was 19 and I can't believe that the 11-12 year olds that I first starting working with are now 22-23!!!!!!!

I feel your pain. I turned 30 in July, and have been trying my best to represent the 30+ club

I work with youth, and sometimes it hits me that, when I was graduating from high school, some of them were just born...or not quite. Hah!

You get use to it after a few years in your thirties. I'm 34 my wife is 27 and she always complains that she is getting old. No matter how I look at it she is young.

You can tell you are getting older when your friends kids start hitting 30.

Bah! Girls only *start* to get interesting around 27-28.

Course by then we're all married and can't do anything about it anyhow.

I cannot believe you kids. Jeez, I'm 44, I got home at 4:30am from being out dancing all night to hip hop just cranked out of some giant speakers, and I've never felt so youthful in my life. All my 30yo buddies are at home hung over, I just got back from a 5k run in the rain. Stop sitting around talking about getting old, go out and stay young!!!

Remember, you're as young or as old as you believe yourself to be. I'm not gonna get old until I'm dead, and I'm fighting it all the way.

Ha!!! Seriously, youth and age are not directly related

K, I have a date, gotta run!

I know what you mean. I'm 47 and feel better now than I did in my mid 30s. Did Ironman Hawaii a couple months ago -couldn't have done that 15 years ago. That was an incredible experience. Most of the 4K swim is over a reef in Kona. Twice during the swim I had a pod of 8 - 10 dolphins swimming underneath me.
