One. Billion. Seconds.

Take midnight on the day I was born, in the time zone I was born, as my personal “epoch”

As of this timestamp — 2010-08-19 23:51:40 UTC — I am one billion seconds old.  I believe that takes everything into account, including leap seconds and Daylight Savings Time; but if not, one might need to subtract 00:00:15 off the number.

Even measured in microliters, a DYA attempt would be very poorly-advised.  But if anyone has reasonable suggestions, I’m up for it.
