The Big 5-0

"50".  

It's an interesting number.  Half a hundred.  It's the number of... 
-states in the Union.  
-ways to leave your lover.
-first dates in Barrymore/Sandler movie.
-cents in a rapper's name.
-Cardinal pitcher Adam Wainwright's jersey.

As of Saturday May 3rd, it's now my age.

Do I feel any different?  Nope, not really.  Actually feel better now than I have in years.

Recently, my grandmother celebrated her 94th birthday.  Her sister is two years older.  So rather than worry about heading to the twilight years, I probably ought to see my life as only half over.

Hey, Moses didn't really get started until he was 80!
