Quoting myself:

So far, the 40's have been my favorite decade, nicely slotted between "getting it all together" and 'forgetting where the hell I put it."

I've described the twenties as the "Who do I want to be?" decade. The thirties are the "How can I change?" decade. The forties are the time of "I am what I am" which is indeed satisfying.

I probably should cry "Foul!" at the implied ageism in the latter part of that . . .

I didn't say WHEN the latter period started... (in my family, it seems to be around 75...hi mom!)

And I didn't make any statements either way about the *accuracy* of this stereotype . . .

And here I was, trying to figure out why that applied to the 1940s. D'oh.

I blame the head cold.
