15 minutes before midnight last night, I prided myself in still being 30 something. I tried to convince myself that I was the new 30 as the minutes ticked by denying that I felt like throwing up. Then it came (midnight).

I thought I'd feel better about turning 40, but he truth is I'm anxious and have a nervous pit in my stomach. I was telling a friend here at AW that it will probably grow on me then start to sag. So, I think if we, who are 40 and over, stand in a huddle I will get over it.

Maybe not.

I need a bucket...

I'm around enough old people everyday, thank you. :D I can't wait to get out of this retirement community and into my bachelor pad where I can perch over the balcony and gawk at college girls in bikinis by the pool.

Terri, I'm way over 40. You look great and you have a great smile and personality.

I think it's all in the attitude. I just look at people like Cher (who is 60) and think: she's still going strong and she's older than I am.

Older women have years of experience. That's a plus!

She's 60? Dang.

I think I'm going to have cake and coffee for breakfast.

And there's nothing about sag that a little strategically placed duct tape won't fix.

by any calculation of life-spans, you're now on the down-side of your life. make every day count.

Wow Haskins, you're a brave man.

As I age, I find myself requalifying age groups. 40 no longer seems so old, because I'm more then halfway there ;).

Women that surprised me when I found out they were 40 or older:

Monica Belluci
Sandra Bullock
Nicole Kidman (well, she's 39, almost 40)
Sarah Jessica Parker
Kristin Davis
Julia Roberts (39)
Helen Hunt
Helena Bonham Carter

None of these women seem 'old' to me - quite the contrary.
Monica Bellucci is over 40?

I feel like the grim reaper just payed me a visit. But I'm still smiling.

I think it's called the "Big let down."

A dark, evil place.
All things are relative. If Terri's on the down-side, I'm about three pages from "THE END."

Come to think about it, that's probably true.
