I turned 40 on Thursday.
It was the first time I've celebrated my birthday without a deep sense of mourning since the WTC thing. It was cool.
I think that 40 should mean something significant somehow, but I feel just the same. I still get acne and I'm dying my hair as I have for over a decade.
My boobs don't sag any more than they did last year or even 5 years ago.
The only thing I'm struck by at all is that at 40, I'm over my median age, which means I'm getting a lot closer to dying than I used to be. That's a bit nervewracking.
To adequately address the wracking of nerves, I'm getting a membership to the YMCA, so I can work out. Mike offered me a black birthday party and I told him to stuff it. Hell, I'll be 50 before he turns 40, the little shit. As long as he thinks I'm hot and sexy, I don't care how old I am. As he says,"You're only as old as the person you feel."
I guess I'll be 27 for a while, then, and buying him hair dye shortly.
