Turning 30 isn't getting me down or freaked or anything. It's just the term "30 year-old" doesn't sound right when applied to me, if that makes any sense. BTW, my grandfather is turning 99 in less than a month, and he plans on outliving his grandfather, who lived to 105!
B.J.
Does that mean you'll try to live outlive your grandfather? Going for 120 maybe?

I feel your pain: I'm now 31 (since the fourth) and I'm not married, have no kids nad just last night got taken on a one-way trip to dumpsville.
She even tried to use the "F" word on me before I interrupted her...then she started with the you're so "special to me" routine and all about how she got back with her boyfriend.... Man, a royally baaaaad night all around.
Just venting- I could care less about being "31". It's a decade longer than I ever expected to survive anyway...

Among my friends, 23 is a milestone. Mostly because you feel like you need to start doing something with your life at this point instead of lounging around or still finishing your B.A.

I've felt like that since I was 12-and-a-half years old almost 12-and-a-half years ago when I became a man.

25 was a biggy for me....my life, based on family statistics, is 1/3 over. One-third over! DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND!? ONE-THIRD OVER!
Oh, yeah, and the 'checking for the ring' thing really makes you lazy...what's life without an ass-full of humiliation?

It's not like you to think in such half-full terms, Ritty.

I had to cheer up my dad when he turned 30 last year, we went fishing and stuff.
Try and make it into something fun, like "hey, one quarter of my life done!". The day I eventually turn 30, I'm just going to have sex with my gf/wife all day and then joke about it.
