My birthday is around the corner and in one week I will be 26. I don't know why but I was driving today and thinking about this and it dawned on me... I am never going to be 25 again. Its not so much that I care that I am getting older... I don't mind turning 26. I just don't want to leave 25. Can't I do both?
25 is just such a great number. I was born on the 25th. Its a square number. It looks nice, sounds nice. There are just so many great things about 25. And its been a great year. Really 25 has been one of my favorites. Right up there with age 15 and 17 (both GREAT years). So I am sad to see 25 go. But I still have one more week of 25 and I am going to live it up while I still can.
Then when next tuesday night comes, after sweating to the oldies (well the 80's actually but you get the point) I will be ready to embrace 26. And who knows... maybe age really is like wine... gets better with time?

last july i felt the exact same way. 25 had treated me so right; why did it have to end? i've also been a fan of 25 as a number for a long time.
BUT i can most happily say that 26 is even better!
just don't ask me how i feel about turning 27 in a few months... :)
