Happy Birthday?

Is that the IDGAFWOPT age?

Yes

I can't wait to finally be happy.

Economist says that after year 46, you start becoming progressively happy, after, basically, 45 years of being progressively unhappy.



Do we think that's true?

I don't think we get "progressively unhappy" up to age 46, but I can see the rationale in becoming progressively more happy after it. You know wtf you're doing at work so that's probably not as stressful as your mid-late 30s, your finances are in order, you don't have little babies running around, you've settled into a nice home, etc. At that point it just seems like you're on auto-pilot and just enjoying the ride, whereas in your younger days you're going a mile a minute and are still learning so much.

Thanks... I'll take it

Clever, eh? I should get points.

Birthdays are always good. Even the mid-40s ones. :)

Will you tell the story?

Well. I'm interested in the actual story. The details. Not the general Cliffs Notes version.

That might take a while. Unless things keep going the way they're going. Then it won't matter . But sure. I'll tell you if you really want to know.
