So....
Today I am 23..
I've been thinking about ways I feel older compared to when I was, I dunno 18 and it's all based on the departments at the Target.
At 18 I went for the sheets with pretty things on it. Now I look for the ones with high thread count, often not available at target.
At 18 the funky and fun plates meant nothing. Now I want to have them in my house.
I want a house.
I look at fancy spread and antipasto's and want to throw dinner parties..
I hate beer, love martini's.
LOVE Gin and tonics...
so another year down, another birthday spent away from my friends and the man I love. The most joy I will have today is opening a couple presents, most of which I know about already since my mother can't keep a secret to save her life.
Make me feel loved and bring those comments over 100... That would be the best birthday present ever.

and make a wish
put a smile on

go robot
it's your birthday
go robot
it's your birthday
Happy Birthday!!!
What I find a little cute about the post is that I remember very vividly what life was like at 23, and what *I* was like at 23. The difference between 23 and 30 is vastly greater than the difference between 18 and 23. (between 30 and 39, not so much) You'll see. I really does get better and better.
Happy Birthday!!!!
Happy Birthday dude!
Happy Birthday Sweetie!! Jaded is right, it keeps on getting better. The 30's are cool, I think it's because you are more sober (slightly). I hope you have a great day and go treat yourself to something nice and say it is from all of us who think you are wonderful!!
Happy Birthday yo! Is it wrong to raise you comment count by leaving two comments?
Because I'm Gonna!
Are you kidding, Mike? this is my 25th. Everyone else sucks.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! You are so young. Oh my GOD are you young! Sometimes, when the senility settles, I remember 23. It was a good year.
HAVE A VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Now you're over half way. :)
Happy Birthday!
Now you can start counting comments DOWN. :D
Nothing personal, RRRRAMONE (god that sexy to say) but...
You ruined my song.
that's, I mean. Ooops.
Happy Birthday Miss Knit! I've enjoyed your comments on Nick, Ubie Lo Lo's blogs!
Have a wonderful day!
Happy Birthday To You!
Happy Birthday To You!
Once again, Happy Birthday! You're over 1/2 way there with the comments!
Happy Birthday Dear Knitty Kitty!
Happy Birthday to YOU!!!!
I remember 23, but you are much more mature than I was at that age. And smarter and generally more together. I think I was maybe 5 years behind you.
I love nice sheets! Linen... mmm... cool, Egyptian Linen.... ahhhh.....
Oh... that last commment was from me, MONKEY'S HUMAN. Monkey is only 5.
I was already married at age 23.
But I got over it.
Until I was 28.
Did I say Happy Birthday already?
You go, girl.
Geez, if you really get 100 comments, that would be one hell of a spanking machine!
Wait! You were married before?
Happy Birthday! This is going to be a great year for you with your big travelling adventures. Twenty three is great. Love it. You deserve it.
What about full disclosure?
Someone stop her!
Oh my Übie. You are like the woman's closest friend. She did things exactly on that same timeline.
I think we can get this baby up over 200 today. Wait until Calzone comes home.
What a way to find out DILF. Purple is offering to share his champagne with you if you need a little sustenance.
my daughter and i just sang happy birthday to you(although she is three and sang the "you look like a monkey" version) but anyways..happy day to you!
You are almost there! Only 20 more to go after this one.
Does everyone know about that really cool thing that you can do with your tongue? That you showed Nick and Tranglin' Anthony?
Show us it for your birthday!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
(I'm mostly a lurker, but still, my comment gets you closer to the goal!).
Wishing you a Happy Birthday and contributing to the comment count.
You Are wise! I am at least 5 years behind you and I am 30ish, damn that sucks! You are so loved here in blogland. Happy Happy day!!
Is this really all you want? I was going to give you the McTwist, but if this makes you happy...
Owl, she does a tongue thing? Cause if the Übermilf comes clean with another revelation...
uberdilf, kitty does a tongue thing - she did it here! (You have to scroll down, but you really can't miss it!)
So, Ubermilf has tongue revelations to come clean with? Y'know, I don't think you could have put it any better. :D
Happy Birthday!!!
happy birthday!!!

Oooh! These suspenders are killing me.
Ah... suspense. The suspense is killing me.

Going
To Be
100!!!! Happy Birthday!

comments.
Yay! Happy birthday!!!
And well done Mike for being prepared to look like you couldn't count in the name of humour. That was very brave and commendable.
We did it! Yay!
Since you reached the 100 comment mark while I was at work, I'll just wish the latest object of my lust a happy birthday.
You all made this the BEST BIRTHDAY EVER!!!!
Happy Birthday Kitty!!!!
Haaaapppy Birthday!
I hope your day is knitaliscious!!
Knitty!!! I only just got home...the first grade team went out for drinks. I had TWO gin and tonics...one for me and one for you! Happy birthday youngster!!!
Fuck I feel old.
You took first graders out for Martinis? Doesn't that seem a bit amoral to you?
Surely it's immoral? Or just bad taste. I mean, Martinis? For heaven's sake, give them Port at least, dear gal.
In a sippie cup no less.
happy birthday! i am going to snb tonight and will knit in your honor!
Team of teachers - you freaks.
happy birthday to you! well...er...now it's the next day on the East coast by five minutes...but happy birthday!
Hi, Knitty! So sorry I didn't make it on your birfday, but I'm glad our friends made it special for you. 23 was a good year for me (the odd numbered ones usually are). Lots of exciting stuff to look forward to! Ok, maybe not because of your age, but because of Australia and all your other plans. Anyway, happy late birthday and thanks for thinking of me over the past few hectic days.
Happy happy B-Day!
Knit smooch,
The Tart
BTW ... I just started knitting, again!
