Unbelievable, I turned 40 today. Because the memorable thing happened at 0:40am local time 40 years ago, I thought I'd stay up last night and finish watching Dennou Coil. Ended up watching 16 episodes (11-26) and going to bed at 2:40, knowing I'd have to get up at 7:30. Normally this wouldn't be worth mentioning, but with advanced age there seems to be a greater need of sleep...

Getting up wasn't too bad, though, as I had time to ponder the cool things that happened in Dennou Coil.

ObReflection: Being 40 doesn't feel like what I expected it to feel like when I was 20. Even 50-60 year olds generally don't seem to be as old as they seemed to me 30 years ago. Ok, back then I was a child and had a different concept of time, but still... Extended lifespan and better medicine certainly has something to do with it as well.

I am wondering, though, whether more days are behind me than lie before me...


Congrats

Thanks!

Ja, gern, danke für die Einladung. Considering that your next bit will be started in 2040, I'd better make it this time...
