Well...I am 41 now. Been on DU
since I was either 36 or 37.

Damnation.

Goodnight all.

3. Are you 41 today? If so, Happy Birthday? Or are you just noting
the passing of the years?

6. HAAAAAAAAPPPY BIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRTHDAAAAAAAY!
even though it is one closer to mine that I used to think ;-)

Can you believe that we have been around here that long?

Hope you have done (or will do) something memorable to mark the occaision. My theory on birthdays (even though I can't act on it all years) is that birthdays are the one day a year that we remember (or we remember about our friends when it is their birthday) to acknowledge... I am glad that (I/you) are here - and that this day marks that coming of being.

:hug:

15. I can't.
Was thinking about that this weekend. Wow. Never thought I would get so attached, and have so much community... and end up spending such long a time at a forum.

Notice how I am not mentioning the answer to the question per age... that is another story. (Actually, given that I rather enjoy the space that I am in at this point in life, I can't really complain on that front. But the number feels surreal.)

But the question still lingers... did you (or will you) do anything to celebrate?

25. I will be 41 in a few weeks. I will be officially old according to...
guidelines I set as a child:

Me age 10 or so: "Anyone over 40 is old"

Me today: "Shut-up you stupid kid"

I wish you a Happy Birthday and many more!
