Milestone... The down side

Tomorrow... The 14th of December will be my 40th birthday. Its one of those birthdays that I'd say things like "when I'm 40 I'll never... fill in the blank". Things like I would never hang out in bars all the time (which I guess I don't do anymore), or I'd quit smoking by the time I'm 40 (I think I smoke more now), by my 40th b-day I would have retired from my career as a go go boy, and of course that would have meant that I would have actually used the Bally Health Club membership more that 10 times in the last 10 years. I would have adopted children with my partner, and he and I still have amazing earth-shattering sex.The list goes on. In reality although most of those things are not the way that I would have planned things are not to bad. After a really great weekend with great friends, some of which came in to town to help me celebrate my b-day, it punctuated that things are good and actually on the up swing. Of course it would be nice to have earth-shattering sex on a semi regular basis would be a plus...
