I'm 35 today

This means I am old enough to assume the duties of president! But…what else? It feels like it should be a big birthday. But what other privileges do I get?

If there aren’t any, can we make some up? :slight_smile:

you are now officially old enough to make up stories about walking barefoot through the snow.

Oooh. Having lived in LA all my life, that WOULD be quite the story!

Wishing you a good day, a good year and a great life. Happy Birthday! :slight_smile:

Happy Birthday! I remember my 35th like it was yesterday. I believe I spent it in Casablanca with this stripper named Denise and her twin sister who was a nun. There was a chicken there as well. I love spice cake.

Let me know how it goes. I will be 37 in two days so the seniority arms race still rages on.

Happy Birthday!

If you can’t fib about snow, at least be sure you were walking uphill both ways.

Beyond that, you’re old enough to give yourself forgiveness for past behavior and permission for current and future happiness. Enjoy!

Happy birthday! In honor of the day, I’ll take it easy on you in our current Scrabble game.

The clock is ticking …

Happy Birthday!

Although this does put me in an awkward position as I’ll be 36 in one week and I always sorta thought that you were older than me. Congratulations on projecting an air of maturity that has surpassed your 35 years of life. :smiley:

Happy Birfday! 35 is great - old enough to know better, young enough to still try it. 40 is less great - you’ll still try it, but you’ll probably hurt yourself.

At 35, you are granted the privilege of experiencing frequent lower back pain. You may now also invoke the privilege of completely throwing your back out once every few years. Congratulations.

I don’t particularly recall how badly you’re beating me in our current game, but I suspect it’s too late for you to take it easy. Revenge will be slow and painful! But thanks for the wishes. :slight_smile:

I’ll take that as a compliment, I think. :wink: I had someone tell me last week that they guessed I was 43 by looking at me. Apparently, I’ve been living hard. :dubious:

I don’t want to be old enough to know better! I want to continue to think I have excuses! You can’t make me grow up!

I…uh…threw my back out for the first time about 15 years ago. This is an example of being ahead of the curve not being such a good thing. Oh dear.

You can talk about Hideo Nomo and young people will say, “Who?”

If you were a woman, you could join the Red Hat Society as a junior member.
:smiley:

Happy Birthday! Eat lotsa cake and enjoy even more presents.

Happy Birthday, you young punk!

I miss our Scrabble games…

Happy Birthday! I hope you’re doing well (and go to the awesome chinese restaurant in the Bonaventure for me…I miss it!)

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday, Asimovian!
