Does anyone know how long you're allowed to stretch out your turning 40 mid life crisis? I'm down to less than 23 hours until that awful meaningless day but still kinda wanna push it out a little longer.
Try looking at it as a victory.
Well I still look and act like I'm 25 so you maybe onto something there β€οΈ
Just wish I could end this whole having to work thing.
ah man that really fucking sucks. Sorry you have to deal with that.

That was absolutely fucking hilarious mate. Especially because I'm on a sabbatical and not working atm π
Oh man that's what I get for posting drunk lol
Mate, don't be ashamed. I'm having a midday beer just because I can :D
No matter which age, I think many of us wish we could.
You do you! Iβve met some very interesting older adults. A woman whose hair was still naturally brown in her 70s, another one who was pretty vocal about still feeling 27 in her mind, men in their 70s that still ride motorcycles and so on.
Iβm in two minds about aging. Theyβre just my thoughts, but weβre in a time where elective treatments prolong life or at least QOL, that can be take for granted. OTOH, there are both modifiable risk factors and luck of the draw when it comes to aging.
More than one way of doing things. Iβll probably age disgracefully any way. π
I once met a couple in their 60/70s who were at a bands first ever gig, we were having a great chat and they hushed me when the band started playing. So much respect for that.
Everyone's journey in life is different and it doesn't matter how you age it's about the fun you have along the ride.
