Yay!! I'm an old fart!!

[kellinator]

Today I hit the big 3-0 and I am so thrilled. All day I've been practicing important phrases I will now need like "you kids get off my yard!"

Actually, I'm not kidding. My late twenties were better than my early twenties, and the older I get the less I feel compelled to try to impress other people and the more I just enjoy being myself. Some birthdays in the past I've fretted over all I haven't accomplished yet; this one, I can look at what I have done and be pretty satisfied with it. I think this is going to be a good decade.

Happy Birthday, you young whippersnapper, you!

The thirties are wonderful. Have fun! And may your year be wonderfully blessed.

My 30s have been the best so far. :)

And I did actually go outside the other day and yell at the kids to get off my lawn. Why they need to play football in MY yard, I don't know. But they tear it up (not that it needs a lot of help to look shitty) and can't catch what they throw so our cars get hit. Ended up timing it perfectly to get one kid in trouble with his mom. It was awesome.

Happy birthday to ya!

I must admit you held up much more admirably than I did when I turned thirty. I hope I feel the way you feel today when I round forty in a year.

As a dear friend once said to me ... Welcome to the sexiest years of your life. ;)

You need to practice talking about teenagers as well. Teenagers are the scourge of this earth.

You young people today, think you can call yourselves "old farts" when you're 30 ... whippersnappers!

But if you want to feel old, well, I'm not going to stop you. ;)

Happy birthday and have a margarita on me.

And if SOMEONE would have returned my call i would have wished her happy birthday via the phone... happy birthday woman.

CALL ME!!!!!

Happy Birthday! and stop calling us old! We're young, youthful and full of spirit!

[kmeghan.livejournal.com]

oops.. I missed it! Hope it was a good day. I've been 30 for about 3 weeks now.. I still get carded, and people argue with me that I'm not really 30...so it's not so bad :)

[sleevewornheart.livejournal.com]

Happy Birthday! May this be your best year yet.

[the-missy.livejournal.com]

I agree with so many others -- the 30s are the best so far. Happy birthday!

[katyakoshka.livejournal.com]

Belated Happy Birthday!

And yes, hitting 30 felt like a relief. :)

[stronae.livejournal.com]

Happy Birthday, then. :)

God I was so thrilled when I hit 30! It's wonderful. Happy (un)birthday, and have a great decade!

[lula-fortune.livejournal.com]

Ooh! Happy Birthday! :) I am turning 37 this year, and am kinda starting to panic...a leetle.

[relevantpink.livejournal.com]

happy late birthday!! ^_^ i'm sort of dreading my next one, but that's probably foolish. 30 sounds like a happy age!!

[canciona.livejournal.com]

Happy birthday, dear!! Welcome to the decade - c'mon in, the water's fine. :)

[maida-mac.livejournal.com]

Happy belated birthday, Kel. I agree with the other commenters, the 30s are fantastic! The 20s were over-rated. :p

[raistlinbrown.livejournal.com]

Happy birthday! I'm much older and fartier than you. :- )
