I need a drink

I'll be 48 in October Capt.

GC, my friend, if your 40's are anything like mine have been, they'll be awesome. To sound trite, the wisdom (or not) I have now would never, ever induce me back to my 20's. I do wish I had my 20 year old knees, though.

I am really, honestly looking forward to my 50's as well.

Oh, and GC, you look much younger than 37!

Morrigoon · 03-05-2008, 05:34 PM

I understand exactly how you feel, GC. I'm 31, can count the number of boyfriends I've had on one hand, still not married, still no kids, we pay more for the mortgage on our condo than my friends do on their houses (because, you know, they got married and bought houses and had kids years ago), I still don't earn a decent living, and in spite of my education, ambition, and talent, I seem to be nearly worthless in the job world except for sales, which I can tell you is a hard way to scratch out your living.

But you know what? Unlike my settled friends, I'm free to have an evening out with my swanky friends. So there's something to be said not "being there" yet

Legit 39.

Y'know, I turned 37 in January and had some of the same things go through my head. I have the house and family and all the trappings of such and am happy with it all, but 37 sounds oh-so-much closer to 40 than 36 did. I live a good life and don't really want for anything, so it wasn't a sense of not having accomplished what I thought I would. Just a nearness to another decade that I really thought was further away.

"Love Don't Make Things Nice
It ruins everything,,,,,
it breaks your heart,,,,
It makes things a mess,,,
We aren't here to makes things perfect,,,
We are here to ruin ourselves and
to break our hearts and love the wrong
people and die. The storybooks are bullsh*t."

Carry on.

And you're not [i]supposed[i] to be anywhere. People who go places they think they're supposed to go do not find happiness there.

I'm 44, GC. I was about your age when I first met you, if I recall. (I joined MP in 2001).

Good gravy, wenchybeth. We've known each other for 7 years. Holy Schamoley! We need to spend more irl time together.
