Damn. How did that happen?


You Act Like You Are 31 Years Old


You are a thirtysomething at heart. You’ve had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!
You’re responsible, wise, and have enough experience to understand a lot of the world. You’re at the point in your life where you understand yourself pretty well.You are figuring out what you want… and how to get it!

What Age Do You Act?

Funny, because this:

turned 45 today.

Forty-freakin’-five.

—- Shoot me.  Tell me Happy Birthday.  Just don’t tell me how much younger you are than me.  Snort. —-

    Happy Birthday!!!
    I figure it this way…when I was still crapping my pants, you were probably getting your ears pierced. You win, dude.

    Check out my new “about” picture - THAT is almost 47. (I know - you can’t see my face - The Man is paranoid) The best thing about being in the later half of your forties is that you don’t have to apologize for thinkin’ your okay (or even better than okay) just the way you are.

    Enjoy the perks of being a grown up hottie and have a happy birthday!!

    Fun quiz - I guess I’m 23 years old. Exactly half my real age - sounds about right - I’ve always been accused of being immature. Stupidheads - why would they say that?

    First, Happy Birthday. I arrived here from Jen’s blog and have discovered we have the following in common:

    I am also forty freakin’ five (for a few more months anyway).
    My sister had that bald patch thing too!
    I used to muck horse stalls so I could ride.

    That’s it so far. Enough to start the stalking.

    mabruk eid-ul milad!

    that’s happy birthday in arabic. my sis and i always sing the birthday song in arabic and english over the phone - and we’re not even arabs.
    it’s the only thing we do without fighting and do consistently. and it doesn’t matter if we’re at work, we’re in the middle of something, the world has to stop, and one has to listen to the whole song. we grew up watching baba yassin on tv and that is from his show when he would have birthday parties for kids in the audience at the end of the show and they had huge cakes and presents.

    here’s to many more years of good health, fun and fun jobs.

    i like the scarf. hmmm, i think it’s time you start thinking about plastic frames. i didn’t thnk they were for me but now they look so damn good ahem, that i like them.

    esp with your eye color, that part needs to be emphasized more.

    hope you had an awesome cake delivered to your house!

  51. Cherion 07 May 2008 at 4:40 am

    Hmmm…First of all Happy Freakin’ Birthday (thanks for the warning BTW, I am just now finding this out at 11:30 at night. Maybe I should be saying “Happy Late Ass Freakin’ Birthday!” LOL) Maybe Mr Hot should dress up as a Chippendale and bring you some “Cake al la Liquor” as a gift (wouldn’t that be something to see in a house with 2 other teenage boys ~ and yes, I know that one of them is NOT a teenager. But mentally, aren’t they all really, like, 14 forever. LOL)
    Anyway, hope that it was truly a “Happy Freakin’ Birthday”!

    BTW, mine said I think like a 29 yr old (which, is not a huge surprise considering I once was one LOL)
