Warning: Tomorrow is the last shopping day before my birthday.

[LeftyMom]

I'm going to be nineteen! *

I'm sure you planned ahead and got me something nice, right Loungies? :D

*again

[DarkTirade]

1. So this is what, the sixth or seventh anniversary of the first time you turned 19?

:P

[LeftyMom]

2. Something like that.

:shrug:

[DarkTirade]

3. I'm still in denial about officially passing the quarter century mark.

:cry: I'm old now...

[LeftyMom]

4. I'm somewhat older than you.

I manage not to feel old, mostly by adjusting my idea of what old is up a bit every year. I suppose a similar phenomenon is what led my 90+ year old grandmother to refer to our 70+ year old neighbors as a young couple. :D

[DarkTirade]

6. The weirdest part is just because I went back to school.

And all the freshmen and sophmores are too young for me to date. :P As are a good portion of the people who've been there longer than that.

[LeftyMom]

8. I went back last year.

I'm kinda in a funny place, much younger than the "non-traditional" (older) students, who are mostly in their 40's, but old enough that the regular students seem to think I fart dust.

[DarkTirade]

21. Yeah. I'm in about the same boat.

I was talking to a (rather cute) 21 year old and I asked her if I was just getting too old to recognize music anymore, or if whatever was playing on the radio was a local band that I hadn't heard because I just moved here.

It wasn't a local band.

[SallyMander]

5. Happy (early) Birthday!!!

What do you have planned?

:party:

:hug:

[LeftyMom]

9. Apparently flvegan is throwing me a parade.

Other than that? I'm going out to dinner with my mom, stepdad and sister. :scared:

[SallyMander]

11. A parade!

This sounds fun, but i have a suspicion that he may just be doing this to see what you'll do for beads... be careful!

:rofl:


I hope you have a tasty and non-scary dinner! :D

[LeftyMom]

12. I'm sure I'll post all about it.

Going anywhere with any of them is an adventure and usually results in a good lounge thread (which reminds me, I have to post about going to a bar, ikea, and a tattoo shop, in that order, with mom and stepdad last night.)

[SallyMander]

13. LOL!

This i gotta see...

:rofl:

[JVS]

7. I didn't know you were a teenleftymom

[LeftyMom]

10. I had my son shortly after turning nineteen for the second time.

;)

[Ellen Forradalom]

14. Nineteen...hexadecimal?

What's your birthday cake gonna be? One my earliest and most vivid vegan-cooking eye-openers was a scrumptious vegan birthday cake.

[LeftyMom]

15. I'm getting a vegan ice cream cake from maggie mudd next weekend.

:woohoo:

[Ellen Forradalom]

17. fedex me a piece

thanks

[Redstone]

16. Only your second time? Child, I'm running up hard against my fourth time of

being nineteen. Amazingly enough.

If I knew I was going to live this long, I might have take better care of myself.

But yeah, I got you something nice. The catch is, you have to go to Florida, collect your hunkish friend, and the both of you have to visit casa Redstone for a few days (and by all means bring LeftySon as well), THEN you can open your present.

Deal?

Redstone

[LeftyMom]

18. If you can get him to take some time off

(and my powers of persuasion haven't worked for that yet, so good luck) we'll be up there.

[Redstone]

19. Let's be realistic here. If YOU can't do that, even that guy who did

that cool trick with the loaves & fishes wouldn't have much of a chance.

Much less me.

Redstone

[LeftyMom]

20. Yep.

:(
