    Listening to albums, rotary phones, NO internet or computers, black and white T.V., people smoking everywhere (even in hospitals!), living through disco times....(I'll be 60 in a few months-ouch!)

    I was listening to 90s music on the way to work this morning and one song brought back high school memories that made me feel so happy. Until I realized that song came out 20 years ago!

    Dial up internet, landline home phones, VHS tapes......all these things are pretty much extinct now.

    What makes you feel old now?

    One of my high school classmates announced her husband's funeral plans. That makes me feel old.

    My 25th high school reunion was last summer. Everyone had grandchildren. (except for me)

    I'm closing in on 40th without grandchildren. That one makes me feel pointless.

    I don't have to feel old, my daughters point it out to me on a regular basis. By making fun of my tennis shoes (I guess only old people where white Nikes). By making fun of the concerts I go to. By laughing at my attempts to use my cell phone to take pics.

    I love getting older. Beats the alternative, plus I can retire in 2019.

    You could blow her mind and explain to her how doctors used to actually advertise for cigarette companies.

    I was actually asked yesterday: "why do you write everything in calligraphy?"

    I wrote my grocery list in cursive!!! WTF!

    We now have to teach our kids how to write their own names in cursive, so that later they will be able to sign documents. They dont teach cursive in school anymor
