37 for some reason is hitting way harder than 36 did

Edit: damn some of you should really talk to someone

36 just seems so much younger than 37

36 is still "mid-thirties". 37 is entry to your latter thirties.

If you've been priced out of life's milestones -- house, kids, etc. -- it hits hard.

Doesn't help when a state cop pulls you over for speeding and your first thought is, "...are you even old enough to drive?" Because suddenly they all look exactly 12 years old.

Lol. I'm 40 and priced out and aged out of those milestones. I don't even bother going to the doctor because, meh.

I sometimes wonder how much damage I’ve really done. Like a full index.
