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...
... as we say in
BTW, I'm starting a new bit, magst vorbeischaun?

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