Thirty-fecking-three.
This is the age I will become as of tomorrow. Jeez. When did that happen?
I am not good with birthdays. At all. In fact I tend to dread them. I think it is something about the need to be cheery. If it wasn’t for my birthday I probably would be cheery as it will be Friday. Fridays aren’t bad. I’m not at work and daytime TV is better than on, say, Saturday.
Am I making any sense? No?
Does this really look like the, heavily-edited, face of a thirty-three year old?
Do these?

I guess this is where ‘early thirties’ starts to blur into ‘mid-thirties’. Dammit.
I think I might lie this year and stay thirty-two. Now don’t you go telling anyone.
And don’t even think about singing to me.
Thirty-fecking-three.
*Weeps*
Oh shhhhhh! I have hit the mid thirties head on and am trying not to think about the looming 40! You’re still a spring chicken in the grand scheme of things. I WILL sing to you – tomorrow, ha! Enjoy your last day of being 32 x x
Noooooo *fingers in ears* “LALALA”
ah you look amazing, looking forward to finally meeting you next week
Yay! Let me know when you are free.
Happy Birthday for tomorrow. Oh, and thirty three? Thirty three is fine. You’ll get the hang of it in no time. BM x
Ah, thank you x
Happy Birthday!
I recently turned 34 and I went from taking no notice of my age to feeling that life is flying by so I get where you are coming from.
Thanks Corinne. I turn into a right old grump this time most years!
YOU’RE WORRYING? Mid thirties has blended into late thirties at my end!!! I haven’t quite recovered from turning 35 yet and that was nearly 3 years ago!
Happy Birthday for tomorrow Jen. Try not to get down about it, you have so much more in life to celebrate than an ever-increasing number. Have a fabulous day with your boys, eat cake, drink something bubbly.
And whereas I barely remember going to any 30th birthday parties (we were all too busy having babies to celebrate), in the last couple of years I have been to some brilliant 40th parties, all 80-90s music, dancing & drinking & laughing without a little person in sight 🙂 There are plenty of fun times ahead!
Happy Birthday honey!

Ah, thank you honey. You have cheered me up 🙂
I am a bit older than you and really hates birthdays these days, however, my baby girl is born 3 days before me, which is genius as arranging a party for her is fun and makes me (and friends) forget that it is mine too! I do remind my husband though….I woulnd’t want to miss out on a present after all. enjoy friday tv!
lol….lo….lol…rofl…..33….rofl…..33!!!
sorry but I never made it to 33, I stopped at 29, unfortunately my eldest will be *whispers quietly 33* later this month and she has stopped believing I am 29…hmmm wonder why that is.
no I feel the same way, hated my birthday as a child cos I only got presents every 2nd year as i “was born to near Christmas” and that was my fault because….?? and can not feel any reason or joy in wanting to celebrate what is just after all another day.
Have a good one anyway
Happy Birthday! But wait until you are forty fecking five!!!! I don’t know how the hell that happened. Feel like a two year old though! Tee Hee!
I’ve decided to be a bit ‘glass half full’ about my thirties because when I actually think about it I’ve pretty much got what I wanted from life so far so I should stop worrying and enjoy it. My plan was: qualifications done – check, career progressing (admittedly slowly) – check, bought house – check, happily married – check, had babies – check, financial stability – ok, still working on that one and I bet yours is pretty much the same (it’s the Shottery Girl in us!). We should celebrate having completely kicked the arse of the last 33 years. I’m giving myself until 35 to add in marginally improved physical fitness and some form of social life although that seems a bit greedy 😉 So have a fabulous birthday chicken and don’t forget you’ll never be as old as me.

Happy Birthday for tomorrow! Even if you don’t feel too happy about it… Personally, I love birthdays, I’m afraid I’m annoyingly positive about them. Firstly, the alternative is death and I like being alive. Secondly, it’s a day all about you! Presents, the excuse to ask people to make you a drink/buy you chocolate/force feed you cake/cook you a meal etc. I know it’s not the same when you have children, but it’s still fun (I find). I know we’re all different though. I’m 30 this year. As me how I’m feeling on the day before that birthday! xx
I like your attitude Alex! I had a thirties crisis when I was 29 but I haven’t had a crisis since and I am now 45! We should definitely celebrate our birthdays! Some people never even get to be the age that we are now! We are so lucky, luckcy, lucky!
I’m forty. 40. FORTY. FFS. I’m going to spend my 41st in a dark room with a bottle of Glenfiddich. Happy birthday for tomorrow. *sings*
Happy birthday! Hope you have a lovely day xx
Happy fecking birthday Hun, Your not old not by a long shot:) x
Happy, happy, happy, happy birthday!
I’ll be forty in the summer. I can’t believe it. I’ve decided to have a wild party. At first, I wanted to have a bouncy castle, but my knee and erm my bladder told me that’s not such a good idea last year when I ‘tested’ the kids trampoline.
My husband thinks I seem to be going backwards in years as I’ve written to all the ‘could-be’ party guests (6 months in advance) and told them it’s a fancy dress party.
Hope you’ve had/are having a nice day.
