Well you get the camera shoved up the ass when you 40 so 50 seems easy. I don't look foreword to those days
It bothered me when I hit 25 and realized I'm a 3rd of the way through my expected life span.

Coming soon, but not looking forward to it. How did you deal with it? It might be time for me to grow a pony tail, get an earring, or maybe buy a sports car. Did all that in my 30's and got it over with. Turned 48 last week, don't like what you see, walk the other way. |

A few years ago. Not a big deal, just another orbit around the sun. Went to work as usual and didn't mention it to anyone there. The good wife made me a nice dinner when I got home.

The arms and AR are mine, not the tights. That was just for fun. I guess I'm not so depressed that I lost my sense of humor yet,so that's good. 50 still has me a bit on edge though. |

Wonder peak, overlooking the continental divide in the second picture. Only 9,900 feet above sea level, but its way higher than where I live!

This is probably a typical thing for a 22 year old to say, though, isn't it... Not necessarily. I don't keep up with mine, and it takes me a second or 2 to do the math if somebody asks. It is just another day. More aches and pains, but I've been getting progressively creakier and more battered my whole life. It doesn't feel a hell of a lot different - your interest in doing stupid things (or anything at all) till all hours for days on end wanes in step with your ability to do so. |
