    Not gonna lie, 40 hit me hard. But once the shock wears off, it's not so bad. :)

    And besides, you blow the concepts of what 40 should look like out the effing window.

    If I look even half as good as you do when I am two months from turning forty, I will run down the streets of Tucson...

    barefoot...

    and naked...

    in 108 degree weather...

    even though I'm a redhead and burn at the mere thought of the sun.

    Because, my dear, you're *kitten* sexy as hell.

    So there.

    I expect 40 to hit me hard this year because that's what society expects. There shall be black balloons, candles, false mourning, blah blah blah.

    What a bunch of crap.

    It's all about society, and society is as real as a bunch of chimpanzees flinging poo at each other in the zoo. Rise above.

    I saw how my mother handled turning 40 and then 50, she was happier and more confident than she was in her twenties and the black crap pissed her off too. We decided that any birthday after 30 should be pink only.

    Meh, 40 schmorty, I say!

    I'm going to be back in Colorado this summer for my 25th(!) high school reunion and I'm in better shape than I was back then. 40 don't mean nothin', plenty of good times ahead for you!

    Age has never really gotten to me. Chronologically I get older, but I am pretty immature most of the time so it balances out :wink:
