I enjoyed the hell out of my 30's but am also enjoying my 40's. Only time
will tell about my 50's and 60's. Birthdays have never bothered me. The
only time I was concerned about them was when it came to being legal to
drink... which flip-flopped all over the place. When I was 18 it was legal;
when I was 19 it wasn't but they grandfathered some of us in. By the time
they switched the age to 21 I was over the age limit and no longer cared.

Happy birthday, Wayne! Have a glass of wine on me!
