Short Whinge

I just realized that I turn 39 in two days. Argh! Our 25-year-old mailroom guy told me "at least you're not 40 yet." I usually think 40 is young. Until I approach it. Such a hypocrite. :) Aw, I always get this way around my birthday. Ever since I turned 24 or so, I've managed to feel sorry for myself on my birthday. It's a personality flaw, I think.

I need porn. Will someone please write some unpretentious porn? Or if you're not of the porny persuasion, post me a picture of a pretty man?

Music to my ears, that you "usually think 40 is young."

I freaked out when I turned 40. My rationale was that if you looked at people who are 40 and looked at people who are 50 -- it's pretty obvious that a lot of change happens in that decade.

Ten years later, I can affirm that, yup, lots of change happens. But so much of how old you feel depends on your mindset. I keep going to JadeCons and enjoying things like High School Musical and reading books like Harry Potter -- that helps keep me young (even if my body is falling apart).

And as someone else said -- you'll always be younger than me.

Sorry, can't offer you any porn. Just an icon of Ewan.

Ewan, Yum! Thank you!

And yeah, we definitely keep doing these things, because they're fun! And what the hell, if it keeps us young mentally. :)
