I am 45 years old today.
Even though I am now 45 :
1) I have not retired yet. When I was 24 I told myself I will retire at 40 and go fish for trout in Australia.
2) I am still not yet a politician so that I can plunder the state's money.
3) I still do not own a Porsche 911, which I once swore I will before I die.
4) I do not have an Istana Wombat, with 25 bedrooms and 30 bathrooms.
5) I still work for other people.
But :
1) I am happy I am still in good health.
2) I have a wonderful wife and kids.
3) I am happy at work.
4) I am glad that I have a lot of friends both near and afar.
Life, is how you want it to be.
Now onto that half-century.

Thank you for all your birthday wishes folks.
Only half-way, laddie .. heh. There was a time during my callow and dissolute youth that I believed that i would never reach 40, much less 'retire'. Well, that came and went and am still hangin' in. So, any day that i wake up breathing is a good day .. heh.
May you enjoy the celebrations of many more birthdays, Womby.
