i stopped getting older a couple of years ago. it really was a great idea to just stop at 25 and celebrate anniversaries of that date from then on. there are a few reasons it was an awesome idea.
one is it makes gift giving easier...there is an anniversary gift list (see the link below) that leaves nothing to question:

i am (like Rod Stewart, Mel Gibson, and Alphaville) forever young.
i will always have an excuse for a quarter-life crisis.
i have an excuse for watching Zac Efrom movies til I'm grey headed (i mean i'm only 25).
Really this is all just a long drawn out way of saying it's scary. thinking about getting this close to my 5 year anniversary (or 30 AHHH) is terrifying. i don't handle aging well. my knees crack, my back hurts if i don't sleep enough, i have to wear reading glasses, i have to pee everyday at 3 a.m., and then i wake up with the chickens. i am glad i'm not 15 anymore but gee whiz. all this wisdom and junk i'm supposed to be gaining is getting close to being outweighed by my vitamin cabinet.
so here's to birthdays. they can kiss my age.
