Six Pack

I’ll be 39 next month. What is there to say about 39 except ‘Thank God it’s not 40.’ How unoriginal. I’m not sure how much ManCandy will be necessary to see me through, but for some reason it does feel better than 35.

And turns out since teens today are such chubs, I actually only feel embarrassed sashaying around the pool in my swim gear because of the octogenarian fitness freaks with 6 pack abs.

I think I’ll have some chips.

Meanwhile, I made my reservation for Blogher finally and plans are shaping up (I have a roomie and plans for drinks and to reconnect with some university pals). You going??

    Wow, 39. That’s almost as old as my mom. For some reason I thought you were older.

    Bossy is going to BlogHer. In fact she has designed BlogWhore t-shirts just for the occasion! So Bossy will be the one wearing the BlogWhore t-shirt. In a heap. Under the bar table.

    39 isn’t so bad. As long as people don’t say “hey, you look 39″

    If they do say that, hit them over the head with your cane.

    Crankmama looks about 29 on her worst days. On her best days, she looks like a troublemaking coed.

    Thirty nine…schmirty nine. Whatever.

    That guy looks just like me but with a smaller package.

    Happy Birthday! I turned 40 last year, and I hate to say it, but it felt old. So I went to Abercrombie and Fitch and bought some knew clothes. (not really)

    Oh someone’s got to give Whit some love for that comment. I nearly peed myself.

    And yes, happy soon-to-be birthday! I’ll join you in a decade.

    Happy birthday, CM! Was it yesterday?

    Here’s to pushing 40 in style,

    Happy Birthday…
    and speaking from the fact that I just turned 41… it seems to only get better…
    and it certainly beats the alternative….

    Jamie Says:

    Happy Birthday! You look mahvelous!

    I’ll be 38 in August. I’m planning on kicking 40’s booty provided I don’t throw out my back.

    Tracy Jewett Says:

    I turned 39 this year too. I’m excited to be 40! When I think about how stupid I was in my 20’s and having to go back to school in my 30’s, I’m almost relieved to be 40. I’d like to think we get better with age….or at least smarter!
