Birthday Girl Blog
Mood:  celebratory
Now Playing: Big 3-0, big deal

Today is my birthday and yup, that number in the title above is correct, I am of a certain age. They say you are as young as you feel, and I feel pretty darn good. I'm waiting for this "maturity" thing to kick in...any second now.

In that meanwhile, here are some quotes about getting old. I promise a review of "Snakes on a plane" tomorrow.

Albert Einstein:
People like you and I, though mortal of course like everyone else, do not grow old no matter how long we live...[We] never cease to stand like curious children before the great mystery into which we were born.

Coco Chanel:
A woman has the age she deserves.

Norman Vincent Peale:
Live your life and forget your age.

Elizabeth Barrett Browning
A woman's always younger than a man of equal years.

Oscar Wilde:
Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes.

Dorothy Canfield Fisher
Those who love deeply never grow old; they may die of old age, but they die young.

Bob Hope
I'm so old they've cancelled my blood type.

Gracie Allen
When I was born I was so surprised I didn't talk for a year and a half.
