Reflections on my 20s

Ok, so I'm technically still in my 20s, for another year anyway. Yesterday was my 29th, and I turned 29 on the 29th in 2009, which I think is actually kinda cool, although not cool enough to make up for having the most forgettable birthday ever. Seriously, it's like pulling teeth to get people to remember my birthday or how old I am, and I'm not the type to send out an announcement about it.

The topper template is by Mrs. Wresh , who does great templates. Ok, I feel like I've accomplished something today. This might be it for the rest of the week.
