I don't know how to start this thread  ,One of my good friends turned 30 this last weekend and his GF planned a big surprise birthday party for him in Vegas during the Viva Las Vegas event.I didn't go because I wanted to stay home and work on my rig,then just a few minutes ago I get this phone call from my other good buddie's sister telling me that she's planning a big surprise 30th birthday party for him and wants me to attend.Now,I didn't think it was a big deal untill I started thinking I'm gonna turn 30 in a few months.So I started thinking about a lot of things and all of a sudden I'm depressed    .I have no real reason to,I'm 29,married,have 2 beautiful sons,some toys,a great job and LOTS of great friends.I don't expect a surprise party,hell I haven't had a b-day party in years nor did I throw one for my wife when she turned 30 a couple months back.I guess I'm just curious as to what those of you that HAVE reached or passed that age did or how you felt or if it was even a big deal for you because I guess it seems to be a big thing for some people  .

Look at it as an excuse to surround your self with what is the most important thing in this life. Friends and family. I know we did a party for me at 40 and it really meant alot to me. The surprise thing is kinda cool too. I just attended a surprise party for a guy turning 70!! That one you gotta wonder if it is a smart thing to do.
