Happy birthday thunks

Aug 22, 2009 20:18

I was lying in bed this morning, having one of my twice-yearly sleep ins, and got to thinking that I am not even yet at halfway to the Biblical three score and ten (though, admittedly, that's next year); I'm at the end of the 'youthful' demographic (18-34), and I now still have mid-30s to enjoy before tearing up my late 30s.  And then I thought, you know, if I fulfill my genetic potential, at least from the paternal side, I've got at least another 55 years to go, if not 70+ (they're a long lived bunch), and it was shocking, humbling, and actually thrilling to think how much time I have to do all sorts of awesomely cool stuff.

As Martha Stewart would say, it's a good thing.
