OK so i am turning 40 in about 10 hours. I feel so relaxed and calm...it's strange, I thought I'd be freaking out. Anyone have any words of wisdom or advice for someone who's about to become an old man??
Thanks to all my cool virtual friends on LS for the nice words (yes, you too MOIMEME ).

for some odd reason, it hit hard when I turned 25 and I'm STILL puzzling over that one!!! now, though, I realize it's not the number, but how you feel inside.
and to be honest, I feel more like the college coed I was than someone expecting to hit the big 4-0 next year, and it's a good feeling. it also helps that I don't really remember how old I am anymore -- I just tell people I was born in '66 and for them to do the math (keeps them ugly little numbers at bay, lol).
something to make you laugh: one of the women in my exercise class, Thelma, has a "baby" who turned 40. On the day of his birthday, she came to the pool laughing about how good she felt the night before, like she was soaring, but then she started feeling really bad. She said she happened to look at the clock, then realized her body remembered going into labor with the "baby" 40 years ago that night!!!
hope you have a great birthday, alpha

Well, hopfully you'll be trying it out soon enough!
Stay out of the gay bars tonight eh. Oh yeah, tomorrow for the hangover :Mcdonald's or any kind of greasy spoon breakfast to get that hangover dump started! lol.
They didn't tell you? It doesn't go until you turn 40. Then - bingo - just like a button's been pushed, the hydraulics quit. Sorry, dude. Your alley cat days are over.
