man this is sad

Post by 69rangerf100 »

tomorrow is my birthday and i will be 29 and is really sad that i dont even care that its my bday tomorrow. there is nothing fun to look forward to after turning 25 (no more insurance discounts) but the good thing is that i took the week off from work to spend some TLC on my truck hoping to have the chassis paintedor close to getting it painted by the end of the week.

I would look forward to a week off work to spend with my truck. Plus people are like trucks. The older they get the cooler they are.

Amen to that. I forget how it felt to be 25... Seems 38 is getting closer to halfway and I feel stuff now that I should not feel...

I'm getting old...

Count your blessings. Many of us would like another chance at 25. Make the most of it.
