With just hours to go, I was wondering if the good people of the Bored, with experience of the following situation, could give me some tips on surviving it...
Whats it like being 40...?

Re: So, whats it like...???
For some, it is a time to change jobs and get out of a feeling of being in a rut or the feeling that there must be more to life than this. Often, a time of mid-life crisis manifested in a change of career, but still keeping the same partner, though. If not, just plug on...as you were.

Re: So, whats it like...???
Can't explain why - perhaps it's the combination of still being (relatively) young, but with quite a lot of life's experiences behind you.
You will also find you have the self-confidence to try things that might have seemed unlikely in earlier years, while still being young enough to enjoy them.
