Not your birthday, but when you turn "thirtysomething-and-a-half."

Mine recently passed, and I was happy to be moving a step closer to fulfilling some life goals. The next six months for me are about accomplishing some stuff.

Does anyone else celebrate their half-birthday? Do you tell people? Do you do anything special for yourself on that day? An ice cream? A Norah Jones cd? A new shirt?

Not since I was 7.


And the "stripper" picture burned my eyes.

That pic is ....

It's never too late to start.

Nah...never did.


But I am going to celebrate when I leave this thread so I can quit looking at...things...that frighten me...

ThreadBare said:

Thanks, but I was never into the half-birthday celebrations, honestly.

ThreadBare said:

coincidence, i think. that, and we were both born on the weekend. it's just trippy.

psychodelicide said:

"Celebration" as in, you realize what day it is sometime before it ends and you smile.

ThreadBare said:

True, I never looked at it that way before.

i notice it... if only because it is the other equinox opposite to my birthday.


but i usually go that much closer to being another year older
even though i know it should be more like i'm alive!

Congrats on the things accomplished and those to be accomplished the rest of this year.... I have never done un-birthdays or 1/2 birthdays but perhaps I will for the kids this year....

Never celebrated half birthdays.

I did celebrate my un birthday last year. I bought myself some cd's & made a cake

Your "un-birthday?" Elaborate, please.
