26th – One week til the big three-oh! Birthday posts commence
As someone who has already turned 30, let me pull back the curtain (we just saw Wicked!) on all the associated myths.
It's kind of like the New Year -- the calendar may have changed but your life is still the same. Sure, you're older now but every single day you are older than the day before. You might have a harder time recovering from a night of drinking or from running a 10k but, let's be honest, you've been feeling it a little more the last few years of your 20's already.
Really the biggest difference is talking to young people (mid-20's or younger) and how they react to hearing you're 30. It's funny how everyone is surprised like "Wow, you're so cool and handsome I never would have guessed you were 30." What is this negative connotation the age of 30 has and how is it so prevalent?
All I can do is keep being cool and handsome and showing people that there's nothing wrong with the big three-oh.
