Can I Have A Midlife Crisis Yet?

Well, the 29th of July has come and gone without too much fanfare. Those of you who know me may realize why this is a big deal. I've hit the end of my 20's... FOREVER.
Hello 30.

As birthdays go, it wasn't bad. Mostly quiet. My beloved Mary got me the Hellboy DVD and a S'Mores maker, and has promised to fulfill my evil wishes this weekend.
Dinner, you pervs. :>

Got comics, as always. Day late because I had to work yesterday. I also got the TABOO soundtrack. A Broadway musical based on Boy George's life? Dude. :>
Ordered the audiobook of FOREVER WAR, by Joe Haldeman. Looking forward to that.
Mary has the soundtrack of the ASSASSINS revival on order for me. Yay! Best Sondheim ever!

Thanks to everyone who remembered and sent me well-wishes and warm fuzzies. I'm understandably freaked about getting older. There's so much left to accomplish, and I can no longer call myself a young adult with any sort of straight face. Because, y'know, 30 is old. I think the crystal in my palm just turned black.

Anyway, that's MY life. I have a few projects I'm excited to work on. We'll see how they go.

Off to raid the fridge and taunt the cats.

Happy Birthday!

(S'more maker? Isn't that what god invented -fire- for, man?)

Happy birthday! Don't be freaked, 30 rocks!

What the hell do you mean, 30 is "old"? :) It's only twice removed from 15...man, maybe it's me, but the further away from 15 the better. :D

Thirty is still a kid! You have a couple decades ahead before you have to think about getting old!

Have a good one!

Happy birthday! *hugs* I didn't know there -were- such things as S'more makers. How interesting.

Ane hey, I understand how you feel. I was freaked when I thought I was turning thirty this year. (Fortunately, I don't until next year. Hee! One more year of grace!)

Happy Birthday!

Like the others have said. 30 isn't old. Believe it or not, there is life after 30!

This is the first time I've checked LJ since the post, so it's late, but Happy Happy Birthday. And I see nothing wrong with a s'more maker. I say the more gadgets the better.
