Hey, it's the last birthday I'll have before turning 40. That's some kind of landmark, I think. I've heard that bad things happen at 40.
You don't have to be Billy C to be an attention whore. Besides, I could never pull off a persona that dedicates so much focus to bodily functions.
First of all Happy Birthday! Second, you hit the nail on the head! I've been there already,(55 this April 21, so get those cards ready and its also my wife's BD) you do literally start falling apart, it starts off slow but gets worse rapidly. Things you never even knew you had so many places to start hurting, things don't work like they use to, take for instance jumping off the bed of the truck! DON"T do that, it hurts now. Hope this makes you feel better!
