Yeah getting older…

March 7th, 2003

Yeah so, my 24th birthday is coming up… Scary thing is that I’m not all crazy about it coming close. I mean it’s great an all, but I guess I’m at the point in my life where turning a year older isn’t a big deal. Let’s see… I think that ended around 21. LOL Hmm… let’s take a look at this… The first “big” age to hit I guess would be 13. Why? Becuase it’s the first age where you are officially a “teenager.” From there you wait till you hit 16 or 17 (depending on what state you’re from) since that’s the age you get your license. From there, you really don’t care for awhile, but you wish you were 21 because you hate trying to find a club or bar that doesn’t card (or you mischevious ones with fake ID). Then when you hit 21, you really don’t give a crap because there’s no real age to really wait for. I mean there is the quarter-century mark, the 25. And the benchmark bachelor age of 30. Then the 65 1/2 years mark where your IRA and 401k can be withdrawn from. LOL Feeling old? Pass the Polyefferdent and the Depends diapers. Yes, and please don’t fall or you may not be able to get up…

Anyways, I actually have to work on my actual birthday and that sucks bigtime… My birthday lies on a Sunday this year for crying out loud! Caroline’s been going nuts trying to find something to get me. Like most working guys my age with a decent amount of discretionary income, anything we want, we will buy (assuming it’s not too outrageous). I am the same likewise. Granted I do have an Amazon wishlist, but there’s no fun in that. It’s just merely a suggestion.

I’d say I’m doing farily well for my age. I have a great job with a great future, about to go to part time MBA on company’s expense, have a great girlfriend, a nice car, an apartment in New York City, a great family, and a very balanced and fulfilling life. Hehehe… Maybe that’s why it’s not a big deal for my birthday. I don’t really have much to wish for myself. I’d use my wish to help out my parents though. That’ll put it to better use.
