More thoughts on 40


I have decided that part of the problem with turning 40 is the word itself.


Fourty.... the "F" sound in the begining just doesnt bode well for what follows it.

FFFFFF......... sounds like someone is going to curse you out, but only under their breath in a sneaky way. And it sounds derisive.

I dont like it at all.


I am planning on changing my Fourty to Thorty.

This new word is scientifically proven to lift your mood when you say it, as opposed to fourty.

The "TH" sound is much closer to other words that are nicer; "thirty", for example, and "thanks!"

And of course the Norse god Thor, who is a symbol of youth and vitality , which is what the new 40 is all about!


So call me not fourty, call me thorty.


But do call. ;)
