Waiting for a bus a few weeks back, a young man stopped and asked me "Pops, do you know what time it is?" Pops?!?! It was worse than the first time I was called "sir" and the other person wasn't patronizing me.
My first camera was a Polaroid Swinger. It cost $19.95 (if I had too much to drink, I would sing the Polaroid Swinger jingle for you all)
I cannot watch Saturday Night Live (except for the Betty White episode) because whoever is in the cast won't be a funny as the original cast. Yes, I know why "Franco is dead" is funny. I cringe when I remember laughing at SNL sketches in which Buck Henry played a child molesting baby sitter.
I remember when television sets had rabbit ears.
I own a Smith Corona Correctomatic Typewriter. That was cutting edge technology in 1975; I was a popular person in the freshmen dorms.
I know Bobby Sherman and Leif Garrett are.
Oh well

Meet the swinger, Polaroid Swinger! Meet the swinger, Polaroid Swinger! It's more than a camera, it's almost alive, it's only nineteen dollars and ninety-five!
Swing it up (yeah yeah) it says yes! (I forget the rest)
ETA: My husband thinks that the last 2 lines are:
Swing it down, it says no!
Turn it off!

Visiting my cousins (middle school aged) who were listening to Justin Bieber. I commented on how one of the songs sounded like NSYNC.
They both gave me a blank stare and asked who that was. When I told them it was the band that Justin Timberlake used to be in, and I think they got it.

NSYNC was my childhood. This makes me sad.

I'm closer to 35 than I am 20. I turn 30 in 14 months.
All if these new kids going through rush were still in elementary school when I first joined GC (in 2001). I'm also thinking about my retirement and wondering if I'm really investing enough into my 401k.

My oldest step son started college last week. My step daughter (middle child) started high school this year. My youngest step- son started 7th grade.
It seems like yesterday when I was giving the younger two piggy back rides and building forts with them in the living room and calling the oldest one down for blowing bubbles in his soft drinks and blowing the paper off the straws in restaurants...or teaching him to drive for that matter...
