I forgot to mention I’ll be 26 on the 26th, supposedly heralding my “golden year.” We’ll see. ---

July 7th Here. I’ll be 17. And I have the coolest birthday ever. Because I was 14 in 2000, and 7+7=14, the date of my birthday will always equal my age. So this year, 7+7+03=17. Happy birthday all. ---

That _is_ really cool, Mirror! On July 14 I will turn 60. The way that I have kept myself from being a little glum on my birthdays – especially the “round” ones – is to set an important goal for the decade. I’ve done that since my 20’s. My goal for my 60’s is to travel Europe as much as possible. Hubby doesn’t fly and I don’t like tours so I will be doing this on my own – which is exciting for me! Next April I will make my first trip to Paris. Happy birthday to all y’all spring chickens! 😉 ---

Happy Birthday, all! Especially **'toons** , who taught me how to do links properly. (Yeah, yeah, I know. But I needed a tutor. 😉 ) ---

Count me in too. I’ll be 32 on the 28th. It’s weird at my age but I’m thinking of joining the reserves. Gotta do it before I’m 35 or I’ll be too old. ---

I’ll be 34 on the 20th, which is also the anniversary of Neil Armstrong’s walk on the moon. I will be moving into the house I just bought the day before so I can wake up in my first house on my birthday and feel satisfied that I finally got myself a really great present. ---

As **Starlite** said my birthday is on the 6th. Same as George “Dubya” Bush and Sylvester Stallone. I will be 27 _urk_. I was born on 7/6/76 at 11:56 (1+1+5 = 7) and weighed 7 pounds 6 ounces. Strange, but true. ---

I’m not on that master list in the OP, but I will turn 29 on the 13th. It should be a good time…I am moving to Florida and will be celebrating with parents and fiance. Happy birthday to everyone! ---
