Birthday Celebration

Posted on November 14th, 2008, in Life, Personal | 6 Comments »

It is my twenty-sixth birthday today, and it really does feel like a strange milestone. I am now closer to thirty than twenty, and my first thought is that I have so many things to do in my life before I have kids, and settle down.

I have been getting all kinds of great birthday wishes, and cards, and I am really happy that I have so many great people in my life.

As part of my little celebration, I wanted to open up the Membership area of this site to a limited number of people, and so over the next seven days, I will be randomly selecting five people that have commented on this blog for a free six month membership (a $60 value).

So if you are a lurker, and would love to get into the membership area, or if you are a new visitor and want to see what it is like, leave a comment on this or any post to have your name put into the draw. Make sure you use your correct e-mail address, or I won’t be able to contact you.

Other than that, if you are older than me, what was your twenty-sixth birthday like, and do you have any advice for me on life? If you are younger, where do you hope to be at twenty-six? Let me know in the comments below.

Go on. Post a comment.

  4. Advice: Keep it light. Take time to yourself. Play. Have *fun*. If you focus on the doom and gloom, well, you won’t be any fun. :-/

    Twenty-six was a good year for me – I got married, and started seriously thinking about my plans for self-employment.
