    I'm 22, I have three friends who got married as soon as they turned 18. Only one of the three couples are still married. I have yet to get engaged for that very reason.

    Not in Alberta. In British Columbia the legal age is 19, in Alberta it's 18. I live in Alberta, it pays to drive an extra day. :)

    Oh Starby, you make me chuckle so. I still get ID'd, which is understandable seeing as I'm only 24. ;);););)

    I think the general rule is that you can be 24 about 15 times...

    ... and then 25 another 7 times...

    ... at least according to my mother...

    Sneezy, isn't the legal age in the US 21? Hmm, something about your story seems a bit suspicious, hmmm, I might have to ask more questions to get to the truth. Can I handle the truth? :) ;)

    You just wait until you hit 24, it's not easy, let me tell you. Especially when you have two kids and a husband of 13 years, yikes, I started young. ;) ;) ;)

    Wow, if I had known that I'm sure we would have made the drive. Sadly it's too late for me now, and I don't feel compelled, in the least, to share this new found info with younger generations. Haha. I'm 26, and the hardest birthday so far was 25. The day that I was closer to 30 than to 20 was a bit of a bummer. It doesn't bother me so much anymore... 30 is the new 20 right?

    I think the next time I go up to PA I'll drive another few hours and make a pit stop north of the border...
    I probably won't handle it too well though coffee makes me psycho I can only imagine what other stuff will do... :)

    I remember I couldn't wait to turn the big one eight...

    First thing I did was buy a pack of smokes.
    Second thing I did was reserve 3 hotel rooms so that I could celebrate my b-day with a bunch of friends. I know a person must be at least 18 to reserve a room. We had a blast!
    Thirdly I legally started dating my boyfriend!

    Now I'm just waiting on my 21st b-day which is in 8 months and 3 days.
