Growing Old Sucks

The Life and Tribulations of an Almost 40 Years Old

Welcome to SirFluffy.com!

About Me.  37 year old male living in Toronto, Canada. I have an engineering degree and a MBA.  I currently work in the investment industry and as such, I am supremely qualified to give advice on any subject.  Seriously, DON’T LISTEN TO ME. 

The Situation.  For the past 6 months, I have been lost.  Me, a driven type-A personality, with a successful career, in a great relationship.  What was wrong?  I read somewhere that mid-life crisis occur at 40, plus or minus 20 years.  The crisis often makes people do “crazy” things”: buy a Harley Davidson or a sports car, have an affair (with a younger person is even crazier), go travel the world, quit their job, … Being the overachiever that I am, I decided to start a blog. 

This Site.  This blog will not bore you with a blow-by-blow description of my life.  Rather, I will explore how getting older is changing who I am.  Look at what “the experts” are saying on the subject, what other people have done to deal with getting older (midlife crisis anyone?), and what crazy things I may be doing from time to time (anyone has a resignation letter handy?).   

My Cat.  I have a cat named Sam.  He is a great source of inspiration.  Going through life without a care in the world, sleeping, playing, eating, sleeping, running, sleeping, and sleeping some more.  From time to time you will hear about him.

One last Thing.  You know about this whole Copyright thing.  So please don’t suck.

Enjoy your stay!
