So I turn 35 in just over a week and I'm really not quite sure how I feel about it. I didn't have a hard time with turning 30, so didn't expect to think much about aging till I hit 40. But I've been finding myself thinking about turning 35 a lot. It's actually been bugging me quite a bit. It feels like much more of a big step than turning 30. I'm sure everything will work out okay, but I am definitely fighting the whole getting old thing. I'm sure there's a chunk of it that comes from various health issues. I have definitely been more aware of my own mortality of late.
And, to add a bit of lightness to this post, and in the spirit of internet begging, here's some things I'd love to get for my birthday:
- A Shonen Jump Subscription
- A RadioShark
- Gift Certificate at the Apple iTunes Music Store
- Anything from my Amazon.com wish list
- Anything from my ThinkGeek wish list
- Either a new 15" Powerbook G4 with a superdrive or a Powermac G5 (with a superdrive)
I'm still trying to figure out just what I'm going to do a week from Sunday to celebrate this year. I'm hoping to make it as childish as I can though. I hate growing up.
