I'm gonna blow this damn candle out

It's my birthday on New Years Day, I will be forty-something plus 1
I read a list of determinating factors of middle-age-ness and ticked every one, so I guess it's official.

But Capricorn is said to be 'old when young and young when old' so I intend to make it so!
