Hooray!
At last!
Pour the drinks,
Prepare the snacks,
Yay, it's all about me!
But hang on, I'm old now!
I always thought I was young...
Really,
This is too much for me.
How am I supposed to cope?
Do I still get to do fun things?
Are my boobs going to sag?
Yikes!
Terrifying and scary!
Oh, why me?
My oldness, alas,
Equals acrostics. Eek!
Today a new demographic
"Old!", they will call me,
"Delinquents!" I will shriek
As I hobble away.
Yes, it is scary.
I'll be wrinkly soon,
And talking about gallbladders...
Melodrama will fix it:
2 the bottle of vodka I go,
5 years until I'm 30...

Yay! Happy happy birthday!
Have you cracked open the vodka yet?

I'm 6 months older than you. Probably 6 times terrified.
Maybe 6 times more wrinkled
Happy Birthday Carolyn

Honey, I can't even REMEMBER being 25! It was loooong ago. But life gets even better after the twenties, I do know that.
HIPPO BATHDAY! from one Piscean to another. Hope to see your li'l sis again soon and I will tease her unmercifully on your behalf, if you so desire.

I CAN'T GET THROUGH TO YOUUUUUU on the phone. Darn those crazy phone lines!
Happy birthday little sister! May your day be filled with vodka and excitement!

Happy Birthday, Carolyn!
25! You're just a chicken! One day your boobs will sag, one day - but that day is far, far away, m'darlin'. Revel in their pertness now. Breastfeeding twins has pretty well done for mine :(
But never mind my boobs! Have a lovely, lovely time with your pals and your voddie and your bloke. Aaah, to be 25 again!

Where did it go? I commented, I did?
Happy Birthday, Carolyn! Make it a jolly voddie one!

Thankyou all...
Drinks were drunk to an alarming degree, and my lack of hangover the next day showed that the Birthday Gods were truly smiling upon me.
I have detected neither sags nor wrinkles, and continue to have fun and play games. It would seem that all is NOT lost the moment one turns 25. Thanks for the reassurances.

For a boy, i think that birthday wishes within a fortnight is acceptable. Happy Birthday Carolyn.

HOWDY MR. HOWIE!!! Thanks very much, will delay the torture that I organised for Brisbane, due to your dammed your Y-clause.
