The "You're How Old?" Story

It was an ordinary day.  Checking to see how many days I have yet until I leave on vacation.  Seems like it's been forever since our last trip to St. Martin in the Caribbean.  I'm a whole 12 months older than I was last year when we went to St. Martin.  Matter of fact I'm 365 days older than I was last year at this time.  So what does it matter?  Nothing, really, but did you ever wonder about time in days instead of months and years.  Most people don't is my guess, since it is to hard to figure in months and days rather than in years.  For me though, I always was interested in numbers like that and at times would get my calculator and do the figuring.  I found a neat site online that will do all that for you if you want to know.  Just for instance, being that today is April 12, 2013, I am 25,052 days old which is the same as 3,578 weeks and 5 days.  Also is 68 years and 214 days, including 17 leap years or 68 years, 30 weeks and 4 days.  In other words, that's 824 months which makes me officially 68.6 years old.  The web site told me that I was born on a Saturday and my last birthday was on a Sunday.  I guess it is more important to know though that my next birthday will be on a Monday.  I'm going to start planning what I want to do on that Monday, providing I reach that Monday.  I know most of this means absolutely nothing to most people, but I always wondered how old I was in days so I "Googled" it 17 days ago, which is 408 hours ago.  This can go on forever which is about as long as I hope to live.  But, we all know that isn't going to happen so I better start to pack my bags if I'm going to be ready in 133 1/2 hours or 8,010 minutes for vacation.  I'll bet some of you are checking to see if my figures are correct, aren't you?  Make it easy and click on this link to help you do some of the figuring.  http://www.korn19.ch/coding/days.php  Pretty neat isn't it, and the color of the link is the color of the water I'll be swimming in sometime soon.  It was another extraordinary day in the life of an ordinary guy.
