33 years ago...



I gave up announcing my birthday after I turned 30. Actually, 29 would be more accurate. Honestly, I really don't look forward to my birthday, mostly because I know it means I'm getting older (but don't worry, I'm not any wiser than I was at 19). I really liked my twenties and that might have something to do with the fact that, although I got married pretty young, I really had no major responsibility for the majority of my twenties unlike most of my friends. Looking back, I'm grateful for the time and FUN I got to have being with just my husband and for the adventures we got to share together.

Since I don't usually get to do anything new or unusual for my birthday, I thought it was worth mentioning that I had my first In-N-Out burger at the ripe old age of 33! I cannot believe how crowded that dang place is. I thought it was pretty good, but not worth all the hype. However, considering that it's kind of a novelty where I live, I will say that I am happy to finally be able to say that I've had an In-N-Out burger. Happy birthday to me.

You have me beat. I didn't have one til 40, didn't get all the hype either. Before they came to Reno that was considered a reason for a road trip. Two hours to Sacramento for an in-and-out burger, no thanks.

Happy Birthday, Melissa!! I was just thinking of us the other day and how we were know as the Moron twins. I'm sure more me than you. Where is there an In-and-Out besides St. George?

Happy Birthday Melissa! I have'nt been either. So maybe for my 33rd I will go to one. Sounds like a plan to me.
