    There are times when denial is good. Remember, getting old just happens, growing up is optional.

    A college roommate I had said his family gave a surprise birthday party for his grandmother when she hit some landmark age (90?). When she walked in the door they turned on the lights and yelled surprise. She had a heart attack and died.

    I thought Liz stopped having birthdays after she reached 39?

    Outcome rests on how she sees reaching 50. Denial is not unusual.

    One time I was 51. Whenever I see a girl who’s 50, I gotta ask her if she’s ever seen the movie The Attack of the 50 Foot Woman. Regardless of the answer, I ask if she’s ever seen the 50 year old woman and tell her she’s the one that I’m asking if she’s seen.

    Liz is only 42 so having a surprise 50th birthday party will be a surprise.

    Strangely, some of life’s eras seem to sneak up on you. The Stranger In the Mirror Realization. Sounds like a Big Bang Theory episode. Or one of Dave Barry’s rock bands. Senior edition.

    My chief regret about my birthday coming up this Sunday is that I will no longer be able to call myself a sexagenarian.

    OK, let me rephrase: We’re going to have a surprise party in honor of Liz’s 50 birthday.
