Birthday Girl

My birthday is tomorrow. I don't think I'm going to do anything to celebrate. I never could understand people that felt like it was somehow immoral to work on their birthday. The only time your birthday is really that important is the actual day you were born. After that it's just trivia, like the anniversary of your first date. Interesting, but not really all that special. I guess it would be more important if I was the Queen of England or something, but the world doesn't care much about little old me.

Personally, I am looking forward to getting older. I'm going to be 39 this year. Next year I'm not going to be 39 again, I'm going to be 40. Why do people want to pretend they aren't getting older? You only have two options, get older or die. I would rather get older. Not that I have anything against dying. There are a lot of really great dead people. And a lot of living assholes. Which would you rather be?
