Being 40: Day 1, Week 1. - Awake at 6 a.m.

Author: Anestis Kozakis |

I am sitting in bed, with my MacBook Pro on my laptop, wide awake at 6 a.m. Partly because of my sleep apnoea, partly because my internal alarm clock is stuck on waking me after six hours of sleep, and partly because I turn 40 today.

Not that turning 40 feels any different from 18, 21, or 30.

Yes, I know, don't look my age. Good genes I guess. But I sometimes do feel it internally, as I have a few health issues that I am worried about.

I vowed at the start of the year t exercise more, do some rock climbing, maybe get into some form of martial arts training. Well, six months have passed and I have done none of those, mainly due to money flow issues. When I get a job that pays me what my skills are worth (which I hope is in the next two months) then I'll start. Yes, I know I can do some exercises at home, but it's not an issue of laziness as some people think, just that I feel exhausted a lot of the time due to my sleep apnoea. Breaking through that exhaustion is the tough part.

I also need to cut down on the junk food. I just find it hard to cook for one most times.

So, turning 40. BIg deal in some cases, not so much in others. Day feels not so different. But the passage of time is still there.

I took Friday and Monday off work, and so I have been having a long lazy weekend. Friday most of the day was spent doing administrata type stuff (rent pain, grocery shopping, etc). Saturday was spent playing some Mass Effect and watching TV< just relaxing basically.

Today is ME day, and I'm doing things all focussed on pampering me! So don't expect responses to messages, e-mails, FB posts, or tweets as I probably won't be online so much after 9:30 a.m. or so.

Monday will be another lazy day.

I don't know how many of these notes I'll make over the year, but I hope to update regularly. I'll also be posting these on my website at http://akozakis.id.au .

And thank you in advance for the birthday wishes, my friends.

Here is an image that a friend sent to us on a mailing list about the frustration people have when trying to view a legal DVD.

Please Note: I do not condone torrenting of movies or buying pirate versions. If I like a movie, I will buy it on DVD. However, it is frustratng to have to jump through the various hoops movie studios add to a DVD before you can watch the actual movie.

(I recommend right-clicking on the image and selecting view in your broser or downloading the image and viewing it full size).
