I Can't Believe it's 2009

I always keep hearing that time speeds up as you get older, but I always thought that was a silly cliche that people say out loud to remind themselves to stop and smell the roses. News flash: it isn't a cliche. I think time actually speeds up with each passing year. I seriously can't believe it's 2009. And, I'm 25. A quarter of a century old. I think I need some roses.

I've always thought it interesting to consider it like this:

"25: About a third dead"

OK, it's perhaps morbid and a little incorrect (79 and 84 is the life expectancy for men & women respectively) but it puts the big picture in plain sight doesn't it? :)

The worst part is that it's the best third behind us!

I really need some roses to smell.
