In the car, I heard the radio playing "Oh Sheila" today. I was pretty surprised and happy and started singing along right away. How cool! I mean, I hardly get to hear that song any more. Now I know why.
It was on the oldies station. Oldies!! Whiskey tango foxtrot?? Are songs from the 80s (and my childhood) considered old now? What a slap in the face. Here I was, having a really good time and singing along, feeling really good, and then I discover that I'm actually an old fart.
Where the hell did the time go? I remember hearing that song in elementary school, and that doesn't seem that long ago... except now that I think about it, it was about 20 years ago. Sheesh. Even high school was over a decade ago.
And now that I think about it, if I don't feel that old, maybe I don't look that old? I wish.
I guess it's time to realize that I'm no longer a fun, youthful teenager but a boring, wrinkled old lady. I guess I should just throw on a housecoat, put my hair in rollers, and crank the oldies station.

LOL - you're one funny old lady!!! Speaking of OLD, you need to stop having SELECTIVE VIEWING. You're a Mom of two perfect children and children or not, the vast majority of people would be lucky to have your looks!!! So whenever you look in the mirror, instead of selectively viewing, see the young gorgeous Mom who brought two children into the world before she's even the big 3-0! The world is your oyster and tomorrow is always a new day! SOMEONE should be so lucky to have such a beautiful person in their life! Be proud Laris - you've more than earned it. :o)
