I'm 51 and I still go to metal concert's and wear metal band t-shirts, IDC! It's what I love to do, to listen to and makes me feel alive! You do you, who cares what and when is the right age for certain things, if you rock the shit out of a short skirt and high boots, do it!

Chronological age is not what matters in the least ...and incidentally at 50 you’re still a youngster to me, but what age you feel inside your head and heart, and whether you still have that joie de vivre and sense of fun! I know that you do still have it...in bucketloads...! Have a wonderful birthday my dear Pralina, and enjoy yourself at the wedding...I know you will!! 🥰

Best wishes. Just stay away from the bride's brother and party. PS fifty is not old, take it from somebody who is way older than that.

Awe! Celebrate your birthday as well, not for the strangers but for you. I am jjst behind you on this life journey, by the way - ET are my initials. and I am an oficial alien too. Hehehehehe
Happy birthday!!!!

Have a happy 50th! Have a couple extra shots at the reception and ask for extra cake!

. . . not to put too fine a point on it, but

. . . getting old (you aren't all-the-way there yet) is not for sissies

Awww To some folks you are still a baby. You wear, say and do whatever you feel like. You deserve a good time. Or at least time away from the hospitial.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEETIE

A little party....

Happy (belated (didn't fire up the computer yesterday)) birthday. We share the same birth month and are now both members of the 50's age demographics.

Today I attended the open casket viewing for my father. One of the few that attended was a former student of my father's last year as a music teacher. She traveled from a different town, brought her daughter, and spoke of how my father's love of music had changed her life for the better. Her stories were a nice distraction.

As a 5th grader my first significant loss was my much beloved grandmother. My parents were great but at that time there was nobody emotionally closer and her loss was profoundly painful and at times, crippling. It took many years to adapt to a life without her. The following years I lost a classmates (suicide), two other grandparents, an 8th grade student suicide (that one really hurt), a few co-worker then another student to an accident, then the last remaining grandfather. All sad but tolerable. Now, with the death of my father, I find myself no stronger then when I was a 5th grader who had lost his grandmother.

50's is not old. Although my first grandmother died (breast cancer) when she was in her 50's my grandfather continued into his 90's. Sadly, after my grandmother died a less then wonderful woman married my (lonely) grandfather. Fortunately, she only lived another 20 years freeing up my grandfather to hook up with another wonderful woman. It was great; like watching teen-agers in love they held hands, smiled, kissed each moved in with each other and seemed to be extremely happy until her kids managed to convince her that her dead husband who was waiting in heaven would not approve of her being happy with another man.

Burial at the Veteran's cemetery tomorrow morning. Not looking forward to preacher blather about Jesus, moved on to living in heaven with others that had passed. Really hard to bite my tongue with such non-sense. The suicide note the was found by the friends of the 8th grade student who hung herself read, "I have killed myself so I can live with my dead father and Jesus in heaven." Her father had died one year earlier.

Happy Birthday, age is relative and 50 years is not old

And Happy Bday October sister..

My Bday is today, was hoping to see my kids and grandkids..so like you I'll be spending it alone, yet again. This time I'm getting dolled up and hitting the town. Dinner in the The North End (italian neighborhood) for Veal Scaloppinie..then off to a cafe for Tiramisu, a Cappuccino and Frangeligo..I maybe alone but gonna do it styling..
You can stop wearing what You want, when You want..❤❤❤❤

Age is just a number, so the answer to your questions (particularly the one about short dresses and tall boots) is do it as long as it makes you feel good, and fuck the naysayers!

I'm sorry you aren't getting the party you wanted, but I hope you find a way to indulge yourself. Happy birthday, Pralina!

Happy Birthday to you! Hope you find many reasons to smile today.

Hope it worked out for you and you made then laugh. And 50? As my friends always said to me, you're as old as the woman you feel!

Just read this like a week later but happy belated birthday to you Pralina!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! You are young to me. I'm sorry you are not having a party. You dress however you feel comfortable.

Congratulations on turning 50. It's an accomplishment all in itself.

Happy Birthday, anyway!

Happy 50! Hopefully the wedding will go off without too much in the drama department !

Happy birthday, sweet lady.
