Today I became 28…instead of 24 hours ago when I was just 27 and still technically 3 years away from 30 and not just 2. I’m not sure that I feel any older. But what really strikes me is that 18, 21 and 25 seem like only yesterday. 2008 will be TEN years since I graduated high school, my kids will turn 7 and 5 respectively, and I’ll have been married for a an entire year. Not to mention, the dreaded, 29th birthday. I have yet to decide how many 29th birthdays I’ll have before I finally start admitting my full age. I figure as long as I’m still getting carded sans children in tow, then I can lie about my age and still feel people might actually believe it.
