Today is my [tag]birthday[/tag]. Yep, the big 28.
As a birthday present, my girlfriend took a group of us to [tag]Medieval Times[/tag] in [tag]Myrtle Beach[/tag] last this past weekend. I’ll tell ya, for whatever reason, it’s gotta be one of my favorite places to go! It’s cheesy, yes, but I always have the time of my life!
I spent this morning at the doctor’s office. I’m a bit traumatized still…experienced some “things” that I really didn’t have much interest in ever experiencing.
The doc told me I’m getting old. I need to change my [tag]diet[/tag]. “You can’t get away with the same things that you used to be able to,” she reminded me. “Are you prepared to change your life starting today?” she asked.
Crap! That’s one heck of a commitment!
I need to do it, I really do. I need to get [tag]healthy[/tag]. I eat the grossest, fattiest, greasiest food possible. If I want to live past 40, I need to make some changes.
Current new items in my fridge: fresh fruit, salad, yogurt, apple sauce, orange juice.
Here’s to a healthy start!

Happy Birthday Bill! You are still young! I am old! hahaha ask my son..”old as dirt”, and I am only 45..and still am not ready to be old..I can’t seem to stay awake as long into the night, and still get up in the morning. NOt sure if that is age or wisdom. :-??
Happy Birtday, Bill!
Ditto, Darla. Also 45, also not ready to be old.
Old? Me? I turned 60 last Tuesday. But haven’t you heard, Life begins at 60? 60 is the new 30!
Happy birthday.
Happy Birthday Bill!!!!! 45, good age! Have a blessed day!
Sorry Bill, I mis-read!!!!! I’m fourty-something myself LOL….anyway, have a super 28th!!!! You are wise beyond your years…:d/
Happy Birthday! I’m 47 and lovin’ it. Well, not so much the heart disease and low thyroid that reared its ugly head at age 45…but lovin’ the rest of it!
As for eating healthy - here’s the best advice I ever heard. Eat really well 80% of the time and have what you want the other 20%. This should keep you in the “good health” catagory but still let you have that double bacon cheeseburger without your arteries closing shop.

Happy Day to you Bill! i just told a friend that I cried for days leading up to my 30th, all too long ago. So enjoy your last couple years you little youngin!
And yes, you are wise beyond your years!!!:o)
Happy B-day. My brother called yesterday and was freaking out that he is almost 40. He’s going to be 32. I reminded him that I was 5 years older and I am the one that is almost 40.
Oh well, glad you’ve got some years to enjoy in front of you
I’ve been to that medievil times!!! I’ve been to myrtle beach twice. Love it there! HOw close are you? How fun!! Hope you’re having a fantastic birthday!!:d
It’s about 1.5 hours…and well worth the drive!!
<:-p
Happy Birthday. < :-p
Happy Birthday Bill!
Well, my fellow August 20th twin…I can’t say that I’m feeling old. Quite honestly, I’d rather be turning 30 this year instead of 29. I’m ready to kiss my 20’s goodbye - they were so full of wasted time and confusion. Let’s just embrace the today we’re given, ok? Ok!
…Oh, by the way, I started dealing with a wonderful thing called IBS when I turned 24 - so if you’re just now dealing with the food thing, be glad you got an extra 4 years!!! Happy birthday, dude! hugs, el
Happy birthday, El!!! I was gonna send you a nice email (still will). I miss you!!! Let’s set up a Euchre night - seriously?
Happy birthday. You’re still younger than the average human lifespan of 34 years so I can’t say that most people don’t live as long as you.
As a vegetarian for the last 16 years I quite like the sound of your fridge contents. Add some cheese and rice and it’d be even better.
Hey Bill - Happy birthday,
32, but feeling a lot younger (and wiser) than when I was 24.
Happy Birthday Bill!
I didn’t see you today at work to wish you a Happy one……so here’s one!
Happy Birthday! :)>-
Since when is 28 old??? :(( I hope not, I hit that point next summer.
BTW, good luck on the lifestyle change.
Good grief! A writer at 28 and an old WHAT? What will you call yourself when you really are old?
You’re only as old as your urinal etiquette :d/
