There's nothing wrong with not wanting to go out partying every weekend - I didn't when I was your age - besides, who says you "have" to go out partying because you are at the "partying" age?? You do what you want to do.
My eldest sister gave me a great birthday card for my 50th that said it's not about age, it's about attitude - knowing you are the best you can be (and other wise stuff which I can't recall and the card is buried in my treasures box).

I do do what I want. Which is sit at home and use the internet, and read books. ^__^ I'm perfectly content with that.
Sounds like a lovely card to have received... I can imagine it being significantly treasurable. Was it all hand written or did she find a shop one that actually had a reasonable message in it?
PS My father's 50th... which was 12 years ago... had him receiving an over 50 first aid kit.

The best present I got for my 50th was my 1.5 metre tall carved wooden Balinese dragon who sits proudly in my dining room overseeing the cat when she sprawls on the table.

I'm glad to hear there are decent cards out there. I rarely find any that I like at all... which is probably why I try to make mine...

The dragon was bought at a shop in Tuggeranong, ACT, not long before we moved up here to Cairns, so all we did was leave it in its crate, shove acres of bubblewrap around it then wrap it in plastic and tell the removalists to be VERY careful with it!
It got up here in one piece and I was then "officially" presented with it.
