Good-Bye 30′s

Today is the last day that I’ll be “in my 30′s”. When I wake up tomorrow, I’ll have hit the big four-oh.

I’d like to think I won’t be too weirded out by it all, but it’s already hitting me a little bit. Feeling kinda… dunno really. Just weird

My company gives employees the day off on their birthday, so a three-day weekend will be nice. Taking the family camping (our first camping outing). There’s a nice campground not too far from here. It’s about a 40 minute drive. 20 minutes horizontally, then 20 minutes vertically up a mountain. We drove there a couple of weekends ago to scope out the campsites, and reserved one that overlooks a lake.

Should be a fairly serene setting to reflect on being old. I’ll be completely “off-the-grid”. No computer, no internet, and no cell (I’ll have the phone but I’m not expecting any signal). The serenity may not actually start until i finish pitching the tent (which i expect to be wholly comical and probably contain some NSFW language). But the rest of it should be pretty cool.

40. Ugh.
