I turn 41 today!

There are many ways to look at this – I think I am going to choose the "glass half full" approach, because, frankly, the alternative is too easy and depressing.

• I am prime again!

• No more worry about turning 40.

• Next year I will be the answer to life, the universe, and everything.

• I am now justified in having so much gray hair.

• There is no point to worrying about what to be when I grow up – I did it, I still don't know, it doesn't matter.

• I am mature enough to be a relaxed parent (at least to Munchie – I was pretty stressed about Nutpea.)

• I am that much nearer to the age where people shouldn't ask how everything is, because I will tell them.

• No more stress about getting ahead in a career – I am not ever going to run the world, and that's fine.  (Of course, I would do a great job at it, but who needs the hassle?)

• I feel like I have a good idea about what is important in life, and I am savoring those things.

• Mr. Man and Nutpea are making me a cake!

• I love presents!  And I get some today!

Wheee!
