Well if I didnt feel old already....

Not that Im old, but Im almost 32 and every now and then it hits me that Im no spring chicken anymore.

Last week I was at the counter at Dunkin Donuts and they had little ornaments on the counter with the "vintage" logo from the late 70s, early 80s. The guy next to me says to the kid at the register, "hey, this is the old logo, but you probably dont know that" and then turns to me and goes "youd probably remember it. Remember this logo?" He wasnt wrong, I did, but thats not the point.

Then I just found out that the little girl I used to babysit just got engaged. How is the girl I used to babysit, old enough to be engaged???? Do you know how old that makes me feel? Chat Icon Chat Icon

Anyone else have moments like this?

Last week I was talking to the new guy in our dept. and out of curiosity asked his age. He said "24" then I did the math... He was born the year my DH graduated from high school and during my sophomore year in high school.Chat Icon

The "kid" I used to baby sit for? He's had his law degree for 10 years, and is older than the OPChat Icon Chat Icon He's 34.

What's really frightening???
My current 10th graders were 6 years old when 9/11 happened. They don't remember a time before acts of domestic terrorism or the Iraq and Afghan warChat Icon

I felt ancient when I was out shopping for my niece for Christmas. I was standing in line at Hollister and was complaining to myself how dark it was, how the music was too loud, how the clothes were skimpy, and how the perfume wreaked!

All the time...

Just the other day I found myself complaning about the "young girls" at work and their writing abilities because everything is written out like a Text Message to their friends.

I had one of those "when I was your age..." moments. They also looked at me like I had 6 heads when I said I didn't have a laptop at college and we didn't e-mail our professors.

I am only 32....

And my 5-year old niece called me vintage the other dayChat Icon

I remember when Charles married Diana and when Prince William was born like it was yesterday. I remember when MTV started. I remember Carter running against Ford. I remember the hostages in Iran. I remember when Lennon was murdered.
