I'm 26 and swinging into panic quite rapidly . My neighbors, a couple who were 26-27 at the time, also bought a boat, ran away from work and sailed till the money ran out. Guess I'll have to paint my boat red and shiny to be different

TolkienJackson- Thank you for your offer! Even though I've just suffered through my own Northern Hemisphere winter, if it meant moving to the Southern Hemisphere, I'd skip summer & go straight for another winter. If I have my geography correct, Perth is a wee bit far from Australia Zoo, & from NZ, but it's a heck of a lot closer than New Jersey, USA is! Am saving my pennies... -Alicia

But I feel 20 lol! It's makes me feel old though to know that I've been a fan of the films since my freshman year in college.... My hubby just turned 31 last week. The funny thing about us though is if he wore a clean shaven face, we'd both still pass for highschool! In a way it's a good thing, but it get's annoying when you're still asked "Just how old are you?" Especially when yer toting around a 3-year-old. ;)

Since last march, if I am not mistaken I was born on international women's day.

And some days I feel like I'm ready for another adventure. Other days, well, I feel like I imagine Frodo felt at 51.

I'm mildly surprised about how many people are around my age.

I knew there were plenty of mature tornsibs, but I'm a bit surprised that I'm in the most populous age group, with lots of people in the nearby age groups as well.

I'll be 32 on June 7th, but I've had that problem of being mistaken for younger for years. In fact, a couple of years ago, I got carded at a bar for ordering a sparkling water. The guy I just started a relationship with thought I was a few years younger than him, but I'm really two years older. I'm sure I'll appreciate looking younger than my age as I get older. It can be hard when people mistake me for being a teenager. Sometimes they don't take me very seriously because of that, not realizing that I'm highly educated and I've experienced a great many things that some people twice my age haven't done. But then, it gives me a great deal of empathy for teens and how people will often assume the worst of them without really giving them a chance to show who they really are. Age is really relative. I don't feel particularly old, and I don't feel particularly young. I think the most important thing is whether you feel good in your skin or not. I know I'm much happier with myself at almost 32 than I was when I was 16.

Yep, don't we all - and I wish the "younger" feeling stayed around longer than the "older"! Ah, but as Aunt Dora said, you're "in your prime". (And bearagorn is 4 x 11 - does that make him a square in his prime? )

my father-in-law is 94 and his hair is still black. Go figure. I know a woman whose hair was silver by the time she was in her thirties, and it looked beautiful.

Maybe if I scrolled down a little and read "vote" it would work better. See, learn something every day.
