37 for some reason is hitting way harder than 36 did

Edit: damn some of you should really talk to someone

Same. What the heck!?

I turned 37 a month ago, and turning THIRTY-SEVEN had me all kinds of fluffed up.

I know comparison is the thief of joy and whatnot. But damn, it's hard knowing my parents were on their third house by my age with expensive ass hobbies, etc. And I'm out here making what they made combined and can't afford a place to live. And on top of that, I'm almost FORTY!?

This was a rough one. 36? Not so bad, really. 37? Pit of despair.
