That is my totally throwing-shit-out-there opinion. Possibly challopy.

I'm 41, probably the right time for a mid-life crisis. I do worry about death more; partly because I don't want to miss "what's next," whatever that is; mostly because I don't want to leave my wife and daughter. I get sad a little more often. I get angry a little faster, too(never with my family; mostly with opposing counsel (not necessarily such a bad thing)).

Also, I've been buying vintage tee-shirts (see a favorite below) and trying to learn to play guitar, bass and piano. But I'm pretty happy, and those are pretty minor vices, as mid-life crises go. Besides, those aren't things found "in every mid-life crisis ever."

I've never heard of a single one of those blogs. (Matt P), Monday, 15 June 2009 19:35 (fourteen years ago) link

I get sad a little more often. I get angry a little faster,

thats exactly the opposite to me.
at 41, i am a lot calmer/happier now than ever before.
i am not sure if i had my crisis a while ago when my head starting opening up buried memories that i had no desire to via some very intense dreams, which put me in a spin for quite a few months.
or, if that was just a minor mental ripple prior to big one thats looming on the horizon.

xp Laurel: I think women are less mid-life crisis-y, and more in a state of semi-constant anxiety from the late 20s on. I think women that are more focused on their bodies have it worse than those who aren't.

You leave simple verbs out of your posts 'cause they're not worth the effort.

you have gray beard hair but u just combed the grecian formula all up in it, later chatting up a lady in the service industry trapped behind a counter who obviously hates you.

Hip young things revive fashions that you were wearing the first time round.
