When I calculated it before, I just counted whole years + months and days since last birthday + leap days; I just missed a month.
Today I did the same calculation in Microsoft Excel, which is astoundingly easy. In fact, it took about 15 seconds to calculate that today is your 12,769th day.
If today you turned 40 years old = 14,610 days 45 years old = 16,436 days 50 years old = 18,263 days 55 years old = 20,089 days 60 years old = 21,915 days 65 years old = 23,741 days 70 years old = 25,568 days 75 years old = 27,394 days 80 years old = 29,220 days 85 years old = 31,046 days 90 years old = 32,873 days
And each day is 24 hours, which is 1,440 minutes, which is 86,400 seconds. You've got 157,766,400 seconds from your 35th birthday until your 40th; even subtracting 1/3 for sleep, think about all you have to look forward to in each of those seconds.

Scott - Think about this:
If today you turned
40 years old = 14,610 days
45 years old = 16,436 days
50 years old = 18,263 days
55 years old = 20,089 days
60 years old = 21,915 days
65 years old = 23,741 days
70 years old = 25,568 days
75 years old = 27,394 days
80 years old = 29,220 days
85 years old = 31,046 days
90 years old = 32,873 days
And each day is 24 hours, which is 1,440 minutes, which is 86,400 seconds. You've got 157,766,400 seconds from your 35th birthday until your 40th; even subtracting 1/3 for sleep, think about all you have to look forward to in each of those seconds.
Still feel old? :)
