It’s just a day in the grand scope of things, but here I am.

Happy birthday, Bones! I hope you have a great day of it!
Thanks Elaine!
Well you aren’t dead which seems to be the preferred outcome for a 50th birthday. Congrats!
I mean at least not yet. Thanks!
Happy Birthday BonesOfTheMoon!
Haha I love that song! Thank you.
Who doesn’t, right? You’re welcome!
Although enjoyable, that wasn’t easy to remember at all!
welcome to the club fellow but slightly younger Xer. hows your health and retirement savings.
Health actually quite good. Um, the other is not. I’ll never retire. I’ll die at my desk with my BPD patient screaming in my ear like she does each week that she needs to come off her medication because it’s giving her a rash, the medication she’s been on for like eight years, lol.
Did you grow up thinking the work hours would go down as we got older and the retirement age would go down as we made our way to star trek utopia. I did and I hate this cyberpunk future we live in.
Yes I did and it sucks.
Congrats! Oh, to be that young again!
Thank you! I honestly like 99% feel the same as I ever did. My knees ache somewhat, and I will admit I’d like some Botox, but I honestly am having an absolute breeze of menopause and my health, knock on wood, is as fine as ever. I’m pretty lucky.
It was at 50 that I started to realize that I was on the downhill slope of my life. I had more days behind me than I have in front.
That is not a bad thing. Every day becomes more precious. It focuses you on things that are truly important and what legacy you may leave.
Happy birthday! I hope it and all the future ones are brilliant.
Thanks!!
Noice. What are your birthday plans?
Doing some cross border Black Friday clothes shopping! While it’s still safe to go to the US and the economy isn’t fucked all to hell by the orange rapist. As they say on Letterkenny, if the Yanks have one thing sorted it’s their shopping.
Sounds like a good day then, and since you’re in the same “overall” geography as me, a beautiful day for it, to boot. Have fun!
I will! I love love love clothes shopping for great bargains.
It’s yo birfday
I’m an old lady!
🎂
Thanks!
That’s 62 in base 8. Or 32 in base 16.
It’s absolutely true. Whatever that is haha.
Nerdy way of expressing “age is just a number” :)
Bonne fête fiston!
Thank you!
Happy Birthday Bones! Hope you have an awesome day
Thank you!
As we tend to say in the Netherlands, you have seen Abraham (or Sarah).
Happy birthday! Are you gonna do anything fun today?
Cross border clothes shopping on Black Friday!
Oooh nice! Looking for anything on particular or just browsing? I sound like a salesperson lol
I honestly love clothes shopping so much. I love having a lot of clothes to choose from and I feel so much better when I get new things. I’m just looking for day to day wear, but I have 65% off worth of coupons, and at an American department store your money can go really really far.
You might want to talk to someone about that shopping habit. 🤣❤️
I do not often indulge! But when I’ve saved enough money I go big.
Welcome to the downslope of your first century.
It’s all downhill from here.
