You are how old???

I am new to my thirties and not bothered by it all so far. I have always been told, "Just wait until you hit thirty." It's here... I dont see what the big deal is. I have a beautiful girlfriend and we have been dating over a year. I am a rock climber and am climbing harder and better than I ever have, and I have never felt better about where I am at in life. What's so bad about being thirty? Screw thirty. Don't tell me that just because I'm not in my twenties anymore that I have to act different or do life differently than I have for the past 29 years. I am still me and still like and dislike the same things. Being in my thirties isnt going to change who I am. Granted I can feel the toll the years have taken on my body. That much I can tell you is true. I do not recover as fast as I used to after a hard days climb. My fingers and shoulders hurt for a day or two after a night at the climbing gym. But as long as I am getting stronger and better, the pain is worth it. But no matter what the years on earth has done to my body, it has only sharpened my mind. If I can keep that up, I dont see myself slowing down one bit.

Okay, enough for today. Im gonna go watch the latest Lost episode I recorded tonight. I will leave you (whomever you are) with the song of the day.... Tom Trauberts Blues by Tom Waits.
