01/09/2009: "Lordy, Lordy, Look Who's Forty"
I’ve been comically melodramatic about turning 40 for about six months now. In reality, it’s just a day like any other; I turned thirty with little incident and fanfare. I “stress” about it at work and at home, but I realize that it is just a milestone, nothing more.
From a physical standpoint, I see some of the decay. I am a bit heavier than I ought to be, and I finally had to be treated for my sleep apnea in 2008. I feel like a new man because I can get a good night’s sleep now, and that has made a huge difference in my energy and disposition. My beard has more and more grey now, so that snowball has started its inevitable roll downhill. My head is still almost exclusively black, so I’m holding on for deal life up there . . . uh, desite the slight thinning in the back.
Ultimately, if I could lose that pesky extra weight, I would be handling turning forty with flying colors and reckless abandon.
So, what are we doing to celebrate my birthday tomorrow? Heather sent me some balloons at work, and my co-workers really had a badly-needed chuckle. My General Manager came out and congratulated me for the milestone. I asked him if “I could sit at the big kids table now”, but he said no, I’m still too young. Man, there is no justice anywhere I go.
One of my co-workers took the photo at the top of this entry with his camera phone, and shared it with all of my co-workers. Someone in Jackson, Tennessee, then hijacked that picture and gave me the benefit of being 27, 150 pounds, and from Hawaii.
