Well, the year 2008 has come. The Year of the Big Two-Five B-day.
To be honest with you, I hadn't really given it much though. I was reminded of it when a couple of my friends' birthdays got closer, because that was when they themselves realised.
In recent years I haven't been inclined to throw a party, maybe just invited had a nice dinner with my family, or simply a meal my girlfriend and a bottle of wine.
But this year, I feel as if I ought to do something bigger. After all, reaching the age of a quarter-century is pretty big! 25 trips around the sun, on this ball of rock we simply call "earth". The age of 52, which is appropriate, as 5 is my mental age.
So I can call myself lucky to have friends with birthdays so early in the year. This gives me ample time to prepare for some sort of get-together in the summer.
Then again, I could just ditch it all and play the ultra violent Ninja Gaiden 2 through my birthday month.
