old

on the eve of my birthday eve, i'd like to share with you two scenes from my favorite episode of sex in the city -- "the agony and the 'ex'stacy" -- an episode that features carrie's birthday.

carrie on phone, speaking to big's answering machine:
"hey, uh, i think you're still in england, but, uh, it's midnight here in new york and it's my birthday. i am officially old. so, uh, i felt the need to call someone ... older."

random girl at restaurant on carrie's birthday:
"twenty-five?? fuck, i'm old! ha ha!"

yup. that 'bout sums this birthday up.

(none of you older people are allowed to tell me i'm not old. it's all about how old you feel, and i feel 140)
