I'm Turning 40 This Year

@littlek,

Such a kvetch! Three days after you celebrate your 40th birthday, I shall be celebrating the 40th anniversary of my 30th birthday. That's the way to look at things. I stopped celebrating actual birthdays at age 32. Now I just celebrate anniversaries of cetain selected birthdays. I expect I might be in Hawaii on Dec. 26. Or not. Wasn't there on my 30th.

Whatever you do, K, have a fun-filled time. Please.

Well, it's not close enough to Thanksgiving to slaughter a turkey... and Mardi Gras isn't till 2009.

That leaves only one sensible alternative......

.......sensible..... I say.....

...........................you WILL obey....

Yes! Drench yourself in tack!

For a piddling $285 you can leave frigid Bawstahn for Nevada.

Heat! Booze! Gambling! Showgirls! Elvis! Gambling! Grand Canyon. Booze and gambling! Large, bold words!! You must obey!

@littlek,

Turning the big four ohh, gives you a legitimate reason, to splurge on yourself. One life. One time. Tick, tock.
I turned forty last year. I'll never forget, I .....
Whatever you decide, happy birthday littlek.

@margo,

I was once a Bostonian. Now I live in California where it's cool to be over 40 -- so long as you stay in shape!

@Izzie,

Welcome back to a2k, Husker!

Mr. Merry, I wasn't kvetching, was I? Didn't mean to. I like the idea of celebrating the anniversaries of birthdays gone past. December 26 is not much more than a month away - how could you not know if you'll be in Hawaii then?

Mr. Stillwater, the Grand Canyon, what a great idea! But, alas, not this year.

Alex, thank you, but it's still a ways off yet.

margo - get what together <anxiously looking around for loose pieces>

NickFun, I remember when you were a Bostonian. What if you're under 40 and not in chape?

Deist, sailor? Really? Hmm... I dated a sailor once, are a former sailor.

Izzie - we have the same birthday?!?

It's a big, long, deep hole in the ground! You can see that anytime, not like its going to fill itself up in the next decade or something!

Bright light city gonna set my soul
Gonna set my soul on fire
Got a whole lot of money thats ready to burn
So get those stakes up higher
Theres a thousand pretty women waitin out there
And theyre all livin' devil-may-care
And I'm just the devil with love to spare
Viva Las Vegas, viva LAS VEGAS!

Booze! Gambling! Hookers! Fast women! Slow horses! Hard liquor! Soft drugs! Hell, if you ain't going, honey, I AM!
Who's for it? Lil'K's birthday blow-out bash at..

That's pretty close to "I do".

@Mr Stillwater,

You've just about convinced me that I want to stay as far away from Las Vegas as I can. Who's paying you? Reno? Atlantic City?
