Vingt- Neuf

29.

Ug.

Does it feel so bad because its the end of a decade? And I remember the start of it? Cuz 19 doesnt feel bad cuz you can barey remember 10. ( Except that you remember that turning 10 was pretty cool cuz it was double digits.)

I know that in this day and age 29 is still pretty hip happening and fun ( as opposed to the pre-Sex in the City years) but just something about it is full of suck. Do 29 year olds watch cartoons? Do they take their BMX to the skatepark? Do they cry when the Oilers win a series cuz they are so happy? [yes-- it happened. i almost cried last night when they won too] Do they stay up to 4 am doing illicit substances and then sleeping til 2pm?

This 29 year old will.

And now, so i can reflect back on it for the year-- my internet 'If today's your birthday' horoscopes...


NY POST: Friends, family and even total strangers will give you plenty of advice over the coming 12 months, and much of it will be good advice, but if your inner voice tells you to do the opposite of what they suggest you must follow that call without a moment's hesitation. Deep down you already know what needs to be done.

CANOE: Happy Birthday: Your ability to move with the times and jump from one thing to another will impress people who can further your plans this year. New and interesting ways of doing things will be easily incorporated into what you want to accomplish. Build your base solidly; this is not the year to scrimp. Your numbers are 3, 11, 23, 24, 30, 42 You are aggressive and progressive. You are a leader, compelled to follow your heart and your dreams. You are determined, calculating and competitive.

ASTROLOGY.COM: New developments in your love life and your finances are sure to pepper your year with surprises. Your appetite for pleasure is strong. A tight square between Venus and Mars in your Solar Return suggests that your affections are powerfully stimulated, and you are more acutely aware of your needs for love and sex this year. Romance, love, and sexuality occupy your mind more than usual. You can enjoy an increase in personal magnetism (as well as libido!), but be wary of competitiveness or tension in existing love relationships, as this aspect ignites your passions in general, whether they‘re feelings of love or anger! Your passions are aroused in all areas -- sensuality, food, comfort, pleasure, material goods, and so forth. Mercury sits at the midpoint of Venus and Mars, suggesting that you may quickly fall in love with someone or with an activity or cause. Much communication with lovers, as well as creative opportunities, are likely. There may also be a phone-based or online romance that is significant and that impacts your life.

My hubby is 34. He watches cartoons at every opportunity that arises. We have wrestle fights in our living room floor for crap's sake. We still love our Playstation and we still like to pretend that we opened the automatic doors with the power of The Force. So...stop frettin' about it. You're gonna make me feel like maybe I should think that I'm old...and I'm not. So there. :D

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday, kiddo! Definitely impressed with the abs, though that's not quite what caught my eye...

29!? That's still young in my book. I'm 37 and I still skate halfpipes, I'm just a bit more careful now. My only advice, if you can call it that, is do your own thing, don't listen to anybody's advice. :-) Happy B-day!
