v-hold, why won’t you die?

yes. another post. well, I am turning 40 on January 18th and figured I needed to say something.
1. I am not afraid of turning 40
2. I am not really excited about it, either.
I’m dismayed that it’s just going to come and go like 26 to 30 then 31 through 39. It’s just another year. But everyone seems to make such a big deal about turning 40 now. Like I have to do something or go somewhere that is big and over-the-top. Have a mid-life crisis or start over in my life.
The main reason I am not feeling it is because coming off of Christmas this year I feel really burnt. This year we had the biggest and best decorated house in all the years that we have been decorating. But just like those tired Christmas specials spout off about, we were so busy doing Christmas that we forgot to enjoy the season.
Now my 40th is coming at me at 100 miles an hour and I am out of money and out of steam. Not sure what to do with myself. Ugh.

A friend of mine suggested he and I have a joint birthday party when I turned 40 (his birthday was a few days later, he was a few days older). He was unemployed so I suggested we have it at his place and I would buy the beverages and food. He agreed and said he would invite people, I gave him a list of my friends.
The night of the party people showed up, many of them with gifts and cards for the friend. None for me. Not that I expected any, but people were making a big deal about the friend’s birthday. Finally my ex-bf showed up, he said to me, ‘Isn’t it your birthday too?” I looked at him and said, “It’s my 40th birthday party.” He then told me that the friend had told everybody it was him birthday party, never mentioning me.
I laughed because it was so bizarre but at the same time totally in character with this “friend,” who always had to be the center of attention. Needless to say, we are not friends anymore.
