39!
I love my birthday. I do not love getting older. Nor do I love being on the verge of 40. But that's okay. Like Levent said when I turned 30 and was not okay with that, "You've had 30 years to prepare for it." And he's still correct. I've had 39 years to adjust to the idea of being 39 and being almost 40. It still seems weird though. Honestly, every year I get a year older always feels strange despite us all knowing that this is how life works. Still weird though. I think I feel about 32. But surprise! I am 39. My birthday was on a Sunday this year, which meant I could celebrate my birthday all weekend long. And because I have so much vacation time, I decided to make a 4 day weekend out of it and took Friday and Monday off in honor of it. I was very extra this year, which I am not always. Although I do believe in taking the day off if my birthday happens to fall on a week day. But I think that is just common sense (if you have the vacation time). Who wants to...
