twenty-nine.

Today I am twenty-nine. For the first time ;-)

I don't feel twenty-nine at all. And people tell me I look like I'm about twenty-three, which I have learned to take as a compliment (though when I worked at a University a few years ago, it got really annoying to continually be mistaken for a student). But I digress.

I still have so much I want to do before I'm thirty — so I guess it's time to get cracking!

I'm taking the day off from work to relax, get a mani-pedi with my mom, perhaps buy myself a present or two, and have dinner out with Nick. I'm looking forward to a low-key day to celebrate entering the last year of my twenties.

Bye bye, twenty-eight!

  1. Happy birthday, Brooke!

    Um, try teaching a class at that same University, and not having the public safety officer believe you when you need him to unlock a classroom because your students -- all but one who are older than you -- are waiting with you for the start of the session!

    Hope you have a great day!

  4. Happy birthday!!!

    You know, Rob is now 31 and still gets mistaken as a high school student pretty often. Occasionally even a middle schooler. He's so tiny! :)
