Turning 33!
After a certain age, you kinda lose track of birthdays and one's age. For me, I think that happened after I hit 25! It's just another ordinary day that's filled with work, work and more work.
What did I do today ... well, with a colleague, we took young uncontrollable kids out to collect old newspapers and clothings from nearby blocks. And what did they end up doing, one boy took some bags of old clothings from a resident and threw it down from the 3rd floor because it was too tiring to walk down with the bags. Like hello, didn't it occur to him that somebody could have walked by and get hit by the bags??!!?? And when I explained that possibility, he looked totally shocked. And then, a whole bunch of kids came running to tell us that 10 kids were trapped in a lift at a nearby block.
Fine ... walked to the block and heard the lift bell ringing to some familiar tune. And the ringing went on and on and on *sighs* Had to call one of the kids trapped in the lift to tell them to stop ringing the alarm as help was on the way. And his reply, 'But we are bored!' Later, I found out that they were jumping up and down in the lift and that caused the lift to stop. Darn, if I knew that before, would probably not bother calling the repair people so quickly and let them sweat it out a little in the lift!! Brats! That's what we're producing these days!
Anyways, though it's a cool thing to turn 40 (thanks to all the ladies in Hollywood who are turning 40 and looking glamorous), being over 30 ain't too bad either.

As I grow in age, I value women who are over 30 most of all. Here are just a few reasons why:
A woman over 30 will never wake you in the middle of the night to ask, "What are you thinking?" She doesn't care what you think.
If a woman over 30 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do. And, it's usually something more interesting.
A woman over 30 knows herself well enough to be assured in who she is, what she is, what she wants and from whom. Few women past the age of 30 give a damn what you might think about her or what she's doing.
Women over 30 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you, if they think they can get away with it. Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated.
A woman over 30 has the self-assurance to introduce you to her women friends. A younger woman with a man will often ignore even her best friend because she doesn't trust the guy with other women. Women over 30 couldn't care less if you're attracted to her friends because she knows her friends won't betray her.
Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 30. They always know.
A woman over 30 looks good wearing bright red lipstick. This is not true of younger women or drag queens. Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 30 is far sexier than her younger counterpart.
Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off if you are a jerk if you are acting like one! You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her.
Yes, we praise women over 30 for a multitude of reasons.
Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed hot woman of 30+, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year-old waitress.
Ladies, I apologize.

For all those men who say, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free". Here's an update for you. Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage, why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire pig, just to get a little sausage...

Sorry, Liz! But that quote is just too good to sit there - I'm borrowing it! :))
Go ahead! Spread it around!! Need to educate men out there about the benefits of being with women over 30!! When we hit 40, we'll just change it to 'Being With Women Over 40!' *grins*
