I believe for academics that moment is called “tenure”.
Middle age? But if 30 is the new 20 then you’re still young. Plus it seems that middle age doesn’t come for another few years. All of which is not to deny you your feelings about it, of course. Regardless, I hope you have a fun day!
Is that a line from a novel?
Have a grand birthday, and beyond, Jeremy!
I am still a bit leery of the Ides of March, but I think you’ve done quite well, all things considered.
Crap. 37 is middle age? I think I’ll ignore my birthdays from now on.
Prz: It’s not a line from anything as far as I know.
CD: Thanks for the Wikipedia link. Now I feel like I have three more years.
Happy Birthday! Do you retroactively feel that your youth was well-spent, perhaps?
